[meteorite-list] NWA 2428 - New NWA Iron

[bernd.pauli at paulinet.de]

Hello John, Dawn and List,

> very pleased to announce a truly amazing new iron meteorite

Congratulations! Beautiful. My first (uneducated) guess would have
been a thoroughly recrystallized, maybe even an artificially reheated
iron, an anomalous iron or an ataxite but then, ... these (schreibersite?)
needles, .. hmhm ...

On your website you write:

> UCLA originally thought that it was a IIC

Well, probably not enough gallium for a IIC and not enough iridium.

Best regards,

Bernd
