<< Perhaps listmembers would like to join the search? Erik, my
fourteen-year-old son, is learning to use a SEM (Hitachi S-2400) at
Nassau Community College on Long Island. He intends to take a look at
meteorite specimens for suggestive (bacterial) forms in the range of
5,000X-25,000X. Geoff Cintron has been kind enough to provide him with
some specimens, but Erik has nothing more interesting than Allende and
Cold Bokkoudd (?) to work with. >>
Hi Carlton,
Sure, I'll donate a small piece of Murchison to further the cause. The
name of the other CM2 that I gave you is Cold Bokveld. Presumably named after
a place in South Africa, but who knows what "Bokveld" means in South African?
Maybe the finder froze his Bokveld off while recoving the meteorite!
Regards,
Geoff Cintron
