Color and shape don't look much like a chondrite to me -- if it's a meteorite it looks more like an iron. But the pictures do not have sufficient resolution for me to decide whether it's terrestrial or meteoritic. --Rob ------_=_NextPart_001_01C1B4F4.D9401500 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <HTML><HEAD> <META HTTP-EQUIV=3D"Content-Type" CONTENT=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 5.00.3315.2870" name=3DGENERATOR></HEAD> <BODY> <DIV><FONT color=3D#0000ff face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN = class=3D812311701-14022002>Hi=20 Ken,</SPAN></FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT color=3D#0000ff face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN=20 class=3D812311701-14022002></SPAN></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT color=3D#0000ff face=3DArial size=3D2><SPAN = class=3D812311701-14022002>>=20 </SPAN></FONT>What do you make of this? <SPAN=20 class=3D812311701-14022002><FONT color=3D#0000ff face=3DArial=20 size=3D2> </FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D812311701-14022002><FONT color=3D#0000ff = face=3DArial=20 size=3D2>> </FONT></SPAN> <A=20 href=3D"http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3D107= 3589986">http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3D10= 73589986</A> <SPAN=20 class=3D812311701-14022002><FONT color=3D#0000ff face=3DArial=20 size=3D2> </FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D812311701-14022002></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D812311701-14022002><FONT color=3D#0000ff = face=3DArial=20 size=3D2>Description says it's a chondrite found in a limestone basin = in=20 Nevada.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D812311701-14022002><FONT color=3D#0000ff><FONT = size=3D2><FONT=20 face=3DArial>Color and shape don't look much </FONT><FONT=20 face=3DArial>like a chondrite to me -- </FONT></FONT><FONT = face=3DArial=20 size=3D2>if it's a meteorite</FONT></FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=3D812311701-14022002><FONT size=3D2><FONT = color=3D#0000ff=20 face=3DArial>it looks more like an iron.
