Hi Greg,

"Flattery"? We are already spoken for, no chance for bits on the side..

"For fun, with some of my own 'new'
classifications, maybe you will have a new goal to try and find a pairing to

them."

Maybe, but then rather by accident. Show them!

On the other hand, we will present some stones in Munich, where even you
will be eager too, to find some pairings as soon as possible, cause they are
so bizarre stuff.

Anyway, paradisiac times for the collector
and the more the dealers compete and prod each other to find the rarest
grails of our solar system
the better for him!

Right, Munich is knocking on the door, who will be there?
Martin

Hello Martin,

Must be a show coming up soon (Munich), otherwise, why all the targeted talk

of pairings? Maybe you have something else paired to one of mine that you
are itching to "announce"? For fun, with some of my own 'new'
classifications, maybe you will have a new goal to try and find a pairing to

them. That would be a good thing since what I will be announcing soon enough

would be very, very nice for your collection.

I should consider your posturing as a form of c, so that is how I
will take it.

Go get 'em, tiger!

Best regards,
Greg

In our case it was different, as we always had our own numbers and are no
selfpairers.
So if it's no problem any longer, we can state known pairings again.

Best,
Martin

Hi Martin,

You wrote, "We didn't know, how to act correctly, as the owner of 4473,
insisted in spring, that he wished, that we never should mention paired
material in his possession or his name in our Ads."

I simply stated do not use my numbers and to get your own numbers before
stating pairings. Just keepin' it real.

Best regards,
Greg
P.S I have plenty of NWA 4473, cut/polished and individuals. I supplied
Michael Cottingham with his 4473.

Hi Bernd,

I can confirm, that NWA 4808 and 4473 are paired (were classified at the
same place). We didn't know, how to act correctly, as the owner of 4473,
insisted in spring, that he wished, that we never should mention paired
material in his possession or his name in our Ads. Like he seems to do too,
when he has material for sale paired with ours, if I look here and there
into ebay. NWA 4808 isn't listed in the Bulletin yet, therefore that little
dilemma.

Anyway it is fascinating material. Additionally to the observations you
made, this meteorite has some more unusual aspects. So no eucritic
components were found in those stones, but fragments of three different
diogenitic precursors. Therefore it must have a somewhat unusual impact
history.

Our "special" was sold out the same day, we found a few more slices in our
stock, now only 3 or 4 small ones are left. As small as NWA 4808 was, it was
quite heterogeneous, macroscopically the slices were quite different from
each other.

If someone is looking for larger surfaces, I saw Mike Cottingham having NWA
4473 on ebay some weeks ago, perhaps he has some left.

Am I the only one, who can't await, that Dawn will arrive at Vesta?
Best!
Martin

Hello again,

I just see that my piece of the NWA 4473 polymict diogenite that
I purchased from Greg Hup? has some resemblance to NWA 4808 and
both diogenites may possibly be paired. The only difference is that
the crystal faces of the orthopyroxene mineral clasts in NWA 4473
are less well developed (in my piece!). In oher words, most pyroxene
cystals in my NWA 4473 piece are anhedral and a few are subhedral.

Bernd
