I want to thank all of you,

Bernd, Jörn,Ken, Herman,MexicoDoug and Anne for the information provided.

So far what I believe is there are 62  hexahedrites and not all are (IIAB)

The other few hexahedrites other than (IIAB) are the hardest to find

I have not seen an example of a (IIG) yet.

I have not found many pictures of hexahedrites that show the unique pattern 
of the Neumann lines, if someone can point me to a link or
e-mail me a picture I would appreciate it.

I want to assemble a page on my web site devoted to the hexahedrites for 
reference, little is known about the hexahedrites.

I'm having a difficult time putting this together, I would like to use any 
pictures you may have, I will tell where the picture came from of course.

Best Regards,
Tim Heitz

Hello Jörn, Tim, Ken, and List,

Here are some of those "hexahedrites" which are not IIAB's:

Bellsbank, IRANOM; Wasson: IIG
Kendall County, IRANOM
Morden, IAB?
Twannberg, IRANOM; Wasson IIG


Best wishes,

Bernd
