Hello all,

Marvin Killgore has a new book that should be out soon (the preprint copy
was in Tucson).  It's a "Color Atlas of Meteorites in Thin Section".  It
shows thin sections of every known meteorite classification and  should help
us non-professionals immensely.  More information can be found at:

Cheers,
