I think the Jensen brothers and Minresco have some for sale. > It is one that you dont see very often. Bernd will tell us more ... Yep, it is an LL6 impact breccia (shock stage S4). No, you do not see it often. I got my 10-gram partial end section from Rolf B=FChler (Swiss Meteorite Laboratory) many years ago. While we are at it, Tuesday, 09 September, Matt wrote to the List: "I will be at the [Denver] show from Tues thru Sun with my bag of goodies, ... a new H/L3-4" Has anybody seen this "unique jewel" yet? I have! I can tell you that this beauty will blow your socks off at least twice. There hasn't been any H/L3-4 so far and thus this new meteorite is truly unique. It looks like an unequilibrated LL3.x and is loaded with lots of colorful clasts, chondrules and chondrule fragments. What a meteorite !!! If you should think there is something like an H/L3-4 - no, there isn't. What I did find in my dtabases is this: Bremerv=F6rde (H/L3.9) - Tieschitz (H/L3.6) - Haxtun (H/L4) Yamato 74645 (H/L4) - Yamato 8424 (H/L) Best regards, Bernd To: mmorgan_at_mhmeteorites.com Cc: martinh_at_isu.edu meteorite-list_at_meteoritecentral.com Received on Mon 15 Sep 2003 01:25:40 PM PDT |
