Dear Collectors,our autumn season we will start with a truly mighty Special.These weeks and months we can say, that we all are captivated by theincredibly fascinating and sometimes almost shocking pictures the Dawn probetransmits through the outer space on our screens from this New World calledVesta.And with each new sight and capture for us meteorite lovers the eagernessgrows more unendurable, when finally the first mineralogical data willarrive - and whether then we meteorite collectors could say to the hare: weare the hedgehogs; We were already there.So as a tribute to Dawn and a salute to Vesta we will reveal four differentnew eucrites all at once,each of them of such a discrete excellence and also of a quality, that wecan imagine, that it won't be that easy to make a decision, which specimento pick, from the kaleidoscope, we try to demonstrate with the diversity ofthe Eucrite group.Let us begin:NWA 6970With a tiny tkw of 15.5g only the smallest. A moderately shocked polymictone, which exhibits an extremely busy small scale tessellate.A very dense and compact material, polishing excellently. Internally fresh,with fine spots of colourful inclusions.http://www.chladnis-heirs.com/specials/special-nwa6970.htmlNWA 6971Displays gorgeous cubistic shock patterns! Straight and extremely angularshock lines, triangular shock veins and whole slightly shock darkenedpolygons - and that all in a perfect contrast to an almost Dho 007 lookingeucritic matrix. Glossy black fusion crust preserved.http://www.chladnis-heirs.com/specials/special-nwa6971.htmlNWA 6972Disguises as a lunaite. As you can see it plays a mimicry of a finefragmental anorthosic breccia. (And among these NWA 6972 chose the prettiest ones). A high diversity ofclasts and inclusions; Highly shocked and Stefan applied a wonderfulpolishing. Note the black and granular fusion crust on the endpieces!http://www.chladnis-heirs.com/specials/special-nwa6972.htmlNWA 6974Elitist extravagance.The climax of our special.A stone like we like it, cause it makes any words obsolete.The Covergirl for any glossy magazine about meteorites or about Vesta.A low shock allowed these different lithologies to merge together to thatmasterpiece.Overwhelming variety of inclusions. Some weird, some black like coal.Holding our breath now, we only still mention, that it wears a fresh blackskin of fusion crust all around (and while we are writing, we recognize,that the price we chose is maybe a little bit too shy).http://www.chladnis-heirs.com/specials/special-nwa6974.htmlEnjoy the Art of Vesta!Yours,Stefan & MartinChladni's HeirsMunich - BerlinFine Meteorites for Science & Collectorshttp://www.chladnis-heirs.com__________________________________ ____________Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.htmlMeteorite-list mailing listMeteorite-list at meteoritecentral.comhttp://six.pairlist.net/mailman/li stinfo/meteorite-list Received on Thu 20 Oct 2011 05:43:57 PM PDT |
