It is what I call a near rim. It <DIV></DIV>>was found due west, at the bottom of the outer talus from the rim, about <DIV></DIV>>12-15 inches deep, so probably tumbled some distance. Found in a region <DIV></DIV>>which was unusually moist. The crust was like a rustball, but very shallow, <DIV></DIV>>and when cleaned, the interior WILL NOT RUST. This is an ultra-thin slice. <DIV></DIV>>It also was almost impossibly hard to cut. On close examination you will <DIV></DIV>>note slippage plains, and what appears to be several lamella crossing an <DIV></DIV>>intrusive vein, they are, in fact, not related. This is the most unusual CD <DIV></DIV>>I have cut, although I have seen this sort of things among research <DIV></DIV>>specimens, but never any commercially available. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>By the way, I had permission to hunt. This was back when I was a student in <DIV></DIV>>Meteoritics under Dr. Leonard at UCLA. <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>Best Wishes, <DIV></DIV>>Ron Hartman <DIV></DIV>>www.meteorite1.com (meteorites) <DIV></DIV>>www.meteorite1.org (membrane boxes) <DIV></DIV>>www.meteorite1.net (cutting, preparation and restoration) <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>>----- Original Message ----- <DIV></DIV>>From: Bernd Pauli HD <BERND.PAULI_at_LEHRER1.RZ.UNI-KARLSRUHE.DE> <DIV></DIV>>To: <GREDFERN_at_EARTHLINK.NET> <DIV></DIV>>Cc: <STARBITS_at_AOL.COM>; <METEORITE-LIST@METEORITECENTRAL.COM> <DIV></DIV>>Sent: Sunday, March 17, 2002 2:06 AM <DIV></DIV>>Subject: [meteorite-list] deformed etch pattern <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> <DIV></DIV>> > Greg Redfern wrote: <DIV></DIV>> > <DIV></DIV>> > > an unusual etch pattern present in a Canyon Diablo Rim.
