Dear List Members,

I have put my last four available pieces of the Mali material up on eBay
under my seller name, NaturesVault. Here are the direct links to these very
fresh and ideally-priced individuals:

Starting in just a few minutes, my new angrite, NWA 4801, will start to end
on eBay today. On Wednesday, my new CK4 and Bassikounou will begin to end.

Here is my original post regarding the new Mali meteorite:
>>
I received my "Mali" chondrites today and made some observations. I cut a
stone each of Amgala, Bassikounou and this new "Mali" stone and polished the
faces. I can say for certain the new material is NOT Bassikounou. "Mali" has
much more chondrules than Bassikounou. I do not think it is Amgala either
because "Mali" does not appear to be brecciated like Amgala. It certainly is
not Zag. I think we have a new one here, now hopefully some eye witnesses
will be found. Maybe our French friends are already on this??

Here are some photos for your own comparison:
