Aloha mai kakou, hello everybody,

NEW LODRANITE SLICES -----------------------
I pulled out some stash material and had more of my new NWA 6075 brecciated lodranite cut up into slices. This material has been found to be paired with NWAs 4478, 4875, 5403 and 5488, and was analyzed by the same scientist who worked on three of the four pairings. A big shout out to Spectrum Petrographics for producing the thin sections and Tom Philips for his awesome photomicrography of this specimen which can be seen here: http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/articles/nwa-6075/
I will be listing slices 0.89-8.13g on ebay soon, but can offer list members a discounted price. These are smaller drop dead gorgeous full slices that are priced well below market:

NEW OLI DIO FRAGMENTS ----------------------
Last year I procured a large lot of achondritic material that I had classified as NWA 6149, an olivine diogenite that was found to be paired with NWA 1877 by the same scientist who worked on the original pairing. I don't have a webpage up with any of this material listed, but you can always find it on my ebay auctions ... which brings me to ...
