To everybody interested & involved,?
?
most of you already know that Meteoritical Bulletin N? 90 is out. The
data base of the Bulletin has also been updated and we are happy to
announce that the latest meteorite from Brazil, the beautiful
unequilibrated Santa Vitoria do Palmar meteorite (L3), finally has
become official.?
?
Most of you will still remember the arguments on this list that
accompanied the first news of the discoveries in Brazil. Only those who
submitted meteorites themselves to the Meteoritical Society can imagine
the relief the official status will bring. I can only encourage
everybody to choose this long and sometimes winding road by submitting
samples and complete find data to a classifying lab. Each piece of
information will contribute to the knowledge transfer to coming
generations.?
?
Our honoured list member Larry Lebofsky, chief editor of Meteorite
Magazine, was so kind to consider the publication of the complete story
of the discoveries and the analysis of the Santa Vitoria do Palmar
meteorite in the coming November issue. So everybody watch out for the
coming issue and get a subscription if you aren't a subscriber yet.?
?
We still keep three large slices of the SVdP meteorite, 600gm 175gm and
145gm respectively, each with both, the shock-blackened and the light
coloured unaltered lithology. We will gladly deal with requests of
scientific institutions or public collections to enable further studies
on this exceptional meteorite. Please contact us for more information.?
?
I would like to thank everybody involved, especially Dr. Ansgar
Greshake for his thorough classification as well as the finder Senor
Correia and the curator of the Museo Municipal Cel. Tancredo F. de
Mello, Brazil, Senor Monzon, for their countless contributions.?
?
Best regards?
?
Svend Buhl?
