I would like to offer up a friendly correction to your list of "non-NWA" material. These are all NWA meteorites: Al Haggounia (paired to NWA 2828) Bassikounou Bensour Breja Chergach El Hammami Tamdakt Zag Best Regards, Greg ==================== Greg Hupe The Hupe Collection gmhupe at centurylink.net www.LunarRock.com IMCA 3163 ==================== -----Original Message----- From: Michael Gilmer Sent: Thursday, April 28, 2011 8:52 PM To: meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com Subject: [meteorite-list] 99 Luft-bottles - sitting in my cabinet drawer Hi List, I finished converting my micromount storage from 3ml glass vials to 5ml glass vials - the latter have a larger storage capacity and have a wider neck to accomodate larger fragments. I keep most of my tiny frags, crumbs, and dust in these glass vials. As of now, I have 2 drawers filled with about 48 bottles each - this holds the majority of my micromount inventory. On average, each vial will hold about 2-5g of material, depending on the size of the fragments. I like these small bottles because they are air-tight, compact, and they let me see the contents at a glance. I also like the "old school" look of glass with corks. On the right is the NWA drawer, which holds all of my NWA micros. On the left is the drawer that holds named finds and falls (or non-NWA Saharans) Photo link - http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj24/Meteoritethrower/Meteorites/new-micros-vials.jpg In the photo, from the bottom left to upper right - Drawer 1 (non-NWA) Allende Al Haggounia Ash Creek Bassikounou Bensour Breja Camel Donga Canyon Diablo spheroids Canyon Diablo shale Canyon Diablo crater sand Carancas Chergach DaG 477 Dalgety Downs Daule Dawn(a) Dhofar 362 Dimmitt El Hammami Ghubara Gold Basin Holbrook Huckitta Imilac (skeletons) Juancheng Kilabo Koltsovo La Criolla Lahoma Lanton Lemmon Northbranch Norton County Nuevo Mercurio Pallasovka Park Forest Portales Valley SAU 504 Sulagiri Tamdakt Tatahouine Thuathe Travis(a) Tulia(b) Vaca Muerta Weston Zag Zunhua Drawer 2 (NWA) - (bottom left to upper right) 323 515 787 801 869 (peas) 869 (frags) 960 1877 2086 2778 (frags) 2778 (part slices) 2975 3134 3144 3152 3336 4292 4473 4528 4846 4688 4689 5054 5055 5129 5133 6026 (frags) 6026 (dust) 6075 6077 6080 6284 6287 6289 6391 6393 6387 6394 uNWA (peas) Loose olivines Loose chondrules Loose olivines Empty vials x6 Best regards, MikeG --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Galactic Stone & Ironworks - Meteorites & Amber Website - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/galacticstone News Feed - http://www.galactic-stone.com/rss/126516 Twitter - http://twitter.com/galacticstone EOM - http://www.encyclopedia-of-meteorites.com/collection.aspx?id=1564 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Thu 28 Apr 2011 09:15:37 PM PDT |
