Hello List, I got an offer to get an NWA classified, and need to send in
about 10g's of the 54 gram speciman. My problem is, this meteorite is cut in
two and has four polished surfaces. This meteorite has so many things going
on in it, I can't figure out what to send. Seems like each surface shows
something different and I would not want anything to be missed in it's
classification. This is one neat meteorite, unlike anything I have seen.
( I have looked at thousands of pics). I figured, maybe I should just send
the whole thing, but I really want to bring it to Tucson to get opinions on
it. If I send it off now, I may not see it for a year or more, where is the
fun in that?
How do you all decide on what part to send in?
Thanks, Tom
