Dear fellow collectors,

my auctions of four rare meteorites are ending in just about 24 
hours. None of these meteorites has got any bids by now, so take 
your chance to add these rare specimens to your collection now:

Tierra Blanca, Winonaite, 0.55g fragment. To my knowledge, this 
is the only Winonaite besides Winona that has ever been available 
to collectors that did not originate from the Sahara desert:

Ibitira, unique Eucrite-like achondrite, 2.06g slice. Recent 
research turned out that Ibitira samples a unique parent body, 
so this is a must-have for every type-orientated collection. 
Available at less than half the price I paid to Michael Blood 
seven years ago (and nobody knew about Ibitira's unique parent 
body at that time...):

HaH 180, ungrouped, unequillibrated chondrite, 3.4g slice with 
great chondrules. Rare stone, comes with a photograph of the 
meteorite in situ:

DaG 647, Eucrite, 1.2g endcut with fusion crust. Unusual mineralogy 
and texture, attesting the two-stage thermal history of that stone. 
Another must-have for every type-orientated collectors:

Hope someone finds these interesting.

Thanks again for looking, and good luck to all bidders!
