Stefan and list members,

Stefan offered us NWA 3099 (L/LL3) last week that to me looked like the same material Blaine Reed was selling in Tucson. So I made the comparison and thought Blaine should know this.

Well, after trading pictures and messages with Stefan I believe I can now say I was WRONG! It turns out Stefan's material had a nice black fusion crust on it while Blaine's had no crust at all from what I could see. While they look similar and may even be from the same asteroid group...they are probably NOT paired from a desert find standpoint.

So if anyone has told Blaine what I previously said, then possibly they could followup with a comment that John D was full of crap...again.

Thanx,

John

Stefan,

Great stuff...I believe this material was for sale from Blaine Reed at Tucson as
an unclassified chondrite with the potential to be an LL3. I think Blaine was
going to follow through with it's classification. Someone should contact him and
let him know that this classified material exists.

Thanx for offer,

John
