Hello Ron, I just couldn't cut my beautiful Venus Stone cast, so I cored
it. After sending the core sample to a prominent meteoritical society member,
this is what I found the Venus Stone to be classified as: A HowardWuite,
planetary material consisting of hemihydrate of calcium sulfate, composition CaSO4 -
1/2H2O.
Hum, doesn't seem to match up with Holbrook. The Venus Stone is safe, long
live the Venus Stone!
Fred H.
