[meteorite-list] AD-Pallasite-Like Ureilite for Sale (again)

[Greg Hupe]

Dear list members,

I have great news. The NWA 2624 "Pallasite-Like" Ureilite I first offered a 
few weeks ago has the green light from the lab. The "olivines" are actually 
Pyroxene Megacrysts. The first and secondary samples match and this is what 
Dr. Bunch of NAU says in regards to the latest findings:

"The problem for us is what special ureilite classification can we use? From 
the ~28 that we have done and ~ 90 by others over time, I have not seen one 
quite like this."

I have re-listed all that is available on eBay, all with "Buy it Now" and at 
the same pricing as I first offered it. The only two pieces I have are the 
example piece in the description and the balance of the second type sample 
that will be returned at a later date. Please note that the eBay description 
still includes "...typical ureilite", this will change as it is definitely 
NOT "typical" as described by Dr. Bunch. It will be exciting to see the end 
result which I will post to the list once received. Here is a link to one of 
the auctions:
