Thanks for watching and good luck to bidders! Both auctions are still very
close to the starting price of $1.

FRESH CHONDRITE:

Last summer i offered on my website some nice individuals of a very fresh
chondrite that i had from Morocco, and all of them got sold very quickly
(see pictures at
http://meteoriteshow.free.fr/meteoriteshow%20fra/pages%20navigation/pieces_en_vente_FB-55-08.htm).
Classification is still pending but i already got the information that whet
we first thought to be a possible H3 is actually a very fresh H4. More
details should come soon i hope with NWA number.
But for those of you who wanted to get some a nd could not, i already have
two fragments of the same chondrite weighing respectively 150g and 270g and
i am expecting very soon an individual weignhing a bit more than 4kg that
was broken in two pieces either at lending or in the low atmosphere as there
is no secondary fusion crust. I will update my website in the two coming
weeks but should any of you be interested please contact me by email and i
will send you some pictures.

Kind regards,
