Dear Listers;
I have just examined what appears to be a pallesite that is 50% quartz,
or some white mineral that looks a little like quartz or a white to
light gray feldspar?
Specimen has iron that my magnet likes, and some nice yellow olivine
crystals in it.
Am I looking at a meteorite, I thought so, about 90% so.
Any advice would be welcome. A part will be sent to some one for nickel
testing, but I was "fidgity" in the mean time.
Best,
Dave Freeman
