<P>Hello all, </P>
<P>You can see a nice&nbsp;Gibeon shocked slice from my collection at </P>

<P>I don't know crater for Gibeon, what's the cause of this shock effet?</P>

<DIV></DIV>&gt;Hi Bernd,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;You might be interested in examining CD16 on my website.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;http://home.earthlink.net/~capricorn89/rim.htm
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Be sure to click for a full screen image. It is what I call a near rim. It
<DIV></DIV>&gt;was found due west, at the bottom of the outer talus from the rim, about
<DIV></DIV>&gt;12-15 inches deep, so probably tumbled some distance. Found in a region
<DIV></DIV>&gt;which was unusually moist. The crust was like a rustball, but very shallow,
<DIV></DIV>&gt;and when cleaned, the interior WILL NOT RUST. This is an ultra-thin slice.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;It also was almost impossibly hard to cut. On close examination you will
<DIV></DIV>&gt;note slippage plains, and what appears to be several lamella crossing an
<DIV></DIV>&gt;intrusive vein, they are, in fact, not related. This is the most unusual CD
<DIV></DIV>&gt;I have cut, although I have seen this sort of things among research
<DIV></DIV>&gt;specimens, but never any commercially available.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;By the way, I had permission to hunt. This was back when I was a student in
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Meteoritics under Dr. Leonard at UCLA.
<DIV></DIV>&gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt;Best Wishes,

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; an unusual etch pattern present in a Canyon Diablo Rim. Contrast
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; the nearly featureless RIM etch pattern with that of an etched
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; "plains" Canyon Diablo specimen. The Rim specimen was subjected
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; to great heat from the impact event which essentially erased the
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; &gt; Widmanstätten lines.

<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Hi Greg and List,
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; An interesting specimen! While the Widmanstätten pattern
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; is still recognizable, the bandwidth seems to have been
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; "squeezed", the lines are bent, the pattern looks much
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; more "diffuse" than the unshocked specimen recovered
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; from the surrounding plain.
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; By the way, Buchwald mentions 7 different alteration stages:
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; BUCHWALD V.F. (1975) Handbook of Iron Meteorites, Volume 2, pp. 390-397:
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 1. Original unshocked material
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 2. Shock-hardened masses
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 3. Shock-annealed masses
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 4. Shock-annealed to recrystallization
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 5. Shock-annealed to alpha2-transformation
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 6. Shock-annealed to alpha2-transformation and
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; recrystallization of cohenite and schreibersite
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; 7. Partly remelted specimens
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Another interesting feature of your "rim specimen" is the small thin
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; schreibersite skeleton crystals some of which which are oriented at
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; a 90° angle in the middle of the picture.
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Best Sunday
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; morning wishes,
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt;
<DIV></DIV>&gt; &gt; Bernd
