I have a huge favor to ask of everyone that might like to participate.

I would like to start a collection of meteorite photographs, of rocks that
have been classified.
Preferably the photos would be good resolution, high quality of the INTERIOR
section- showing the grain structures. If you have a specimen ID card, a
good photo of that would also be great. Feel free to send as many as you'd
like!

I'm doing this so I can start getting a good idea of what the different
classifications look like for a reference.
I just purchased a high powered digital microscope camera to look at my own
specimens with.
I have no intention of classifying my own, but I would like to get a good
idea of what they MIGHT be, and see if any may be worthy of having them
classified.

After I get them compiled, I'd be happy to share the results with all
contributors and anyone else on the list that might like to have a copy.
Any additional information that you'd like to submit with each photo would
be more than welcome. Information and documentation is what I am looking
for, so the more the better.
If you'd like to send photos but not have them included in the distributed
copies, that will be fine also. Just let me know what info is or isn't for
publication.

I'm not trying to make any money off of this or write a book, it is just for
reference and would be free to anyone that would want it.
Thanks for your time and hopeful contributions!
