[meteorite-list] Another Al Mahbas Meteorite Testimonial of Rainbow Olivine!

[MARK BOSTICK]

Hello list,

Re: Continuing the Al Mahbas Meteorite thread started by Jeff Kuyken.

I have added a few photographs of my small Al Mahbas specimen on my website 
showing the Al Mahbas (prov. name) meteorite and its "fire olivine".

The meteorite is very hard to photograph.  It looks half man-polished and 
half desert vanished, which gives it an appearence, at least in olivine rich 
specimen such as mine, as a piece of amber.  I was wondering how it would 
appear to my fresh Huckitta. Like, Al Mahbas, a weathered pallasite, but it 
doesn't at all.

Clear Skies,
Mark Bostick
