Dear Michael:

Thanks for including that photo of mine in your ongoing project.

I forgot to include a caption, and thought the details might be 
interesting to our fellow listees.

Pictured is a 98.7-gram shield-shaped Sikhote-Alin with faint rollover 
lip and unusual surface features. Someone posted a similar photo last 
year (Matt Morgan?), showing that knotty pattern on a Sikhote. I can't 
remember the verdict on what caused that. Does anyone else?

Michael, keep up the great work!


Regards,

Geoff N.
