This number is of course provisional until the Bulletin will be published. NWA 4233 Northwest Africa Found 2004 Iron (IAB), Octaedrite (Of) An iron mass of 444 g was bought from a Moroccan dealer during the Hamburg Mineral Fair, Germany, in 2004. The exact find location is not known. Classification (J. Schl?ter, Hamburg), NAA (B. Spettel, Mainz): Composition of the metal is Co 4.82 mg/g, Ni 123 mg/g, Ga 26.8 ?g/g, Ge 45.0 ?g/g, As 13.5 ?g/g, Ir 1.38 ?g/g, Au 1.74 ?g/g. The type specimen of 21.5 g is curated at the Mineralogical Museum Hamburg, the main mass is with Andreas Gren, Hamburg. As I do have only half of the small tkw for sale and already some reservations, the supply of this beauty with its convincing patterns ? finally again a Fine Octahedrite ? is very limited. Note also the high-contrast etch. Only 4 full slices available. Shipping is 5$ registered worldwide. http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA4233_1a.jpg http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA4233_2a.jpg http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA4233_3a.jpg http://www.meteoritenhaus.de/img/NWA4233_4a.jpg Thanks for looking, feel free to ask for backside pictures.
