Hello,



this week 96 item on ebay...


A Buzzard Coulee crusted endcut, a nice thin etched Fukang, a martian meteorite (0.54g) without reserve price, a 16.58g Tatahouine, a specimen of Nuvvuagittuq paragneiss (4.28Ga, oldest terrestrial rock).

And the etched main mass, as an oriented endcut, of the ungrouped iron (silicated ataxite, cobalt-rich) NWA 6167.


Etched sections
show an ataxitic texture. Under high magnification the metal shows a
very fine (1-5 ?m) intergrowth of kamacite and taenite arranged into a
micro-Widmanst?tten pattern. Low reserve price :
