Dear List,

I vaguely remember seeing a schematic somewhere many years ago of how a
sample of the Tucson Ring was sectioned into pieces. Does anyone remember
this or know where I can find it? Also, I am interested in knowing where,
exactly, samples were actually removed from the ring. I have an old woodcut
from 1855 that shows the ring in its original state and I notice there is a
nodular mass inside the ring that is not present on the current mass. Is
this removed portion the source of all the small specimens in collections
today?

Thanks!
