New meteorites, Denver's Mineral Show.



Hello,

 We have just return from our last meteorites collecting in the Sahara (
the two last week of August and the first week of September 1998 )and we
have found few important meteorites: some primitives chondrites and
probably some are carbonaceous ( SAHARA 98044 contains many CAI's inclusion
? ) three achondrites ( SAHARA 98110, an eucrite ? with tiny gas vesicles
present on the fusion crust and SAHARA 98111, an unbrecciated diogenite ?
and SAHARA 98100 a very special meteorite metal rich, impact melted ? ) and
a very impressive stony-iron meteorite SAHARA 98088 ( mesosiderite ?
probably not if we compare it to the others mesosiderites we know ) and
some nice ordinary chondrites brecciated or not an impact melted chondrite
? Sahara 98007 and one wonderfull completly oriented fresh specimen Sahara
98117.

 If you are interested to look at these new meteorites, we will be present
at the Colorado Mineral & Fossil Show, Denver 1998 in the selling room
number 385 ( Holiday Inn, Denver North, 4849 Bannock Street) from 09/15/98
to 09/20/98 and at the Colorado Fossil Expo ( plaza annex, Denver
Merchandise Mart) 18/19 and 20 september 1998. 

 For this moment we wait classification of these  new meteorites Sahara
98XXX. We will send meteorites list with price as soon as possible with
classification at collectors interested.
