Aloha Listoids,

NEW LODRANITE --------------------------------------------------------------
Some of you may remember an achondrite exhibiting an iridescent crystal on its surface that I had shared with the list (http://astroday.net/meteorites.html). A 29g fragment was originally purchased and examined by Dr Ken Hon of UHH Geology as well as Dr Jeffrey Taylor of UH HIGP, and finally classified by Dr Tony Irving of UW. NWA 6075 (prov) slices are almost sold out (the last 2 are on ebay now), but I am having more prepared which will be available in a couple of weeks. In the meantime, I have some smaller fragments now available at affordable prices, see them here:

LUNAR SLICES -----------------------------------------------------------------
NWA 4734 Lunar meteorite was found in Morocco in October 2006 as a 1.372kg fusion crusted stone. NWA 4734 represents a type of lunar mare basalt that is unattainable by the private collector, having been found only in Antarctic lunar mare basalt LaPaz Icefield 04841 meteorite. The texture and composition of this and the Lap lunar meteorites are indistinguishable, called pristine magmatic rock. The Big Kahuna has some beautiful part slices available to collectors at prices far below market. See the selection here:
