Send a reply and I'll get back with price and photo Mr. Wayne Walton was one of the first scientists to study rocks from the first lunar landing, NASA's Apollo 11 mission. His team originated and compiled most of the information in NASA's catalogues, Apollo 11 Lunar Sample and Apollo 14 Rock Samples. Mr. Walton's double major in Geology and Chemistry at Drury College in Springfield, Missouri had led to a Masters Degree in Geochemistry at University of Arizona, after which he became a research chemist at the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company. Later, as he prepared for a career in teaching - his life's greatest passion - at Ohio State University, he became intrigued with meteorites. He began his prolific collecting hobby and subsequently chose meteorites as the subject of his dissertation, Phase Equilibrium in the System Farringtonite-Whitlockite-Forsterite at One Atmosphere Pressure. From this study, new and unusual minerals have been discovered. After Mr. Walton's career at NASA, he taught as a missionary in Africa for fourteen years where, in the early 1990's, he was instrumental in making the discovery of Gao known to the world. Mr. Walton's fascination with meteorites resulted in a fine assemblage of specimens representing a spectacular variety of localities, including rarely seen meteorites like these: Forest City, Olivine bronzite chondrite (H 5), 4.3 grams; Lancon, Olivine bronzite chondrite (H 6), 0.3 grams; Collescipoli, Olivine bronzite chondrite (H 5), 0.2 grams; Jackalsfontein, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 1.4 grams; Chantonnay, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 9.8 grams; Alfianello, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 9.1 grams; Vouille, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 9.2 grams; Holbrook, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 22.4 grams; Zavid, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 26.8 grams; Tennasilm, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 4), 6.4 grams; Bjurbole, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 4), 15.0 grams; Cold Bokkeveld, Carbonaccous chondrite (CM 2), 4.4 grams; Aioun el Atriuss, Diogenite (ADIO), 0.2 grams; Nuevo Mercurio, Olivine bronzite chondrite (H 5), 21.3 grams; Wiluna, Olivine bronzite chondrite (H 5), 14.6 grams; Bjurbole, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 4), 3 grams; Marion (Iowa), Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 10 grams; Holbrook, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 20.5 grams; New Concord, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 55.5 grams; Ergheo, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 5), 28.8 grams; St. Michel, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 4.6 grams; Tuxtuac, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (LL 5), 7.9 grams; Tatahouine, Diogenite (ADIO), 20 grams; Mbale, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 5 or 6), 59.7 grams; Homestead, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 5), 11.7 grams; Barwell, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 2.6 grams; Bjurbole, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 4), 3.5 grams, in pieces; St. Michel, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), 3.3 grams; Jilin, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 5), 42 grams; Bath, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 4), two specimens, 24.1 grams and 0.1 grams; Wiluna, Olivine bronzite chondrite (H 5), 22.6 grams; Kainsaz, Carbonaccous chondrite (CO 3), part slice, 2.0 grams; Mt Tazerzait, Olivine hypersthene chondrite (L 6), five specimens, 75.4 grams, 36.9 grams, 12.7 grams, 8.4 grams, 3.5 grams; Lowicz, Mesosiderite (MES), 23.1 grams. -- Rob Wesel NAKHLA DOG METEORITES www.nakhladogmeteorites.com ______________________________________________ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
