I started = to bid on one of these ebay Rose City pieces but the email I received = did not substantiate the provenance of the piece so I passed on it. The theory that there may be two distinct types of material in the Rose = City meteorite is plausible but I cannot think of one single meteorite = that has such contrasting matrix material.=20 John Schooler Member of The Meteoritical Society and IMCA ------=_NextPart_000_0011_01C1CE95.BF205260 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=3DContent-Type content=3D"text/html; = charset=3Diso-8859-1"> <META content=3D"MSHTML 6.00.2600.0" name=3DGENERATOR> <STYLE></STYLE> </HEAD> <BODY bgColor=3D#ffffff> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>Hello everyone:</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>For what it is worth, my 18 gram end = cut of Rose=20 City looks very similar to the ASU specimen, very dark matrix and loaded = with=20 metal.
