As if the impact glass isn't rare enough, the metal is apparent in the cut face as well as included on the exterior as an oxidized roundish ball. I am no trying to push the sale, rather I would like those who disregard ADs on the list to have an opportunity to not only see the specimen, but to discuss it if possible. In my gatherings i also found a 4-5lb. specimen which has a quench texture on the bottom that transitions into a gray/'blue/black glass which has inclusions of the quench. Has anyone encountered this material in the field or has anybody seen this at other localities? Here is the link to 1/2 of the impact glass specimens I found. This is quite small in comparison to the other, however the larger specimen does not have included metal. http://www.ebay.com/itm/84g-Endcut-of-Crooked-Creek-Impactite-Extremely-Rare-Impact-Glass-with-metal-/221292197160?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item33860af528 Any input would be greatly appreciated. Pictures of the large specimen (not for sale) upon request. Thank you and all the best, Brandon D. -----Original Message----- From: b1dunovant <b1dunovant at aol.com> To: meteorite-list <meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com> Sent: Tue, Oct 1, 2013 1:13 pm Subject: [meteorite-list] AD: Amazing Impactite Material for sale!! Carbonate Melts, beaut breccia and more.. Good Day/Night Fellow Listees. It's been some time since I have had a chance to get on the list and also present some new material to the collectors and researchers interested. I have had to deal with some serious personal family issues and this has weighted heavy on me as of late. Today I would like to get the word out that I have some new impact material of such quality that it should excite those who share my common interest and attention. It is not just the size, but also the scarcity. To some up what I have I am just going to list what I have below. Further specimens will be added over the course of the day so stay tuned as well! http://www.ebay.com/usr/meteor-rite 1) 469.2g endcut of full impact melt from the Crooked Creek, Missouri impact. 2) 39.5g Rare slice of possible impact or landslide melt in Kofels, Australia. 3) 1,123g corner cut of impact breccia from the Crooked Creek, Missouri impact. 4) 868.2g Huge slice of impact. Melt breccia from the Glover Bluff, Wisconsin impact site. 5) 441.7g. beautiful corner cut of the yellow type impact breccia from the Glover Bluff, Wisconsin impact site. I also have a piece of Meteorite art in the form of a Zoomorphic Campo that has been painted by an artist with oil paint. It was shaped and is now presented beautifully as a colorful chameleon. It was displayed in a display at a museum for some time and includes documentation from them as well as the artist. Again, my eBay listings can be viewed by following the below link. http://www.ebay.com/usr/meteor-rite ; Thank you and all the best, Brandon D. ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Tue 01 Oct 2013 04:39:20 PM PDT |
