Listees,

Sorry for the double post, but I had to let everyone know i have added
to my listings a very rare and I have no doubt a scientifically
important specimen. it is a endcut of impact glass from Crooked Creek
that has metal inclusions in it. 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.

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Pictures of the large specimen (not for sale) upon request.

Thank you and all the best,

Brandon D.

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!

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.
