AGOULT (EUC unbr) Found Morocco, 2000 30° 33' N., 4° 54' W. T.K.W.: 482g
A single 82 gram stone with fresh fusion crust was found in March of 200
in Morocco.
Later, a second, 400g stone was recovered which was originally thought
to be a new
Chassignite. However, Rubin of UCLA identified it as a second stone of
Agoult. The
meteorite has a homogeneous, grainy texture. Ongoing research on this
unique,
unbreciated eucrite will undoubtedly yield interesting information. This
material was
selling at the Denver show this year (2001) at $600/g dispite the
deflated market and
dramatically reduced attendence. Thick pieces of it can be found
elsewhere in the US for
$250/g - here it can be had in THIN partslices at -25% of that price,
yielding vastly greater
surface area to weight ratio. Larger Pieces = 1/2 Price!
