[meteorite-list] NWA 2140 smells like gum?

[Walter Branch]

Hi again Mike,

Yes, you are correct.  There was also a discussion some years ago about this 
as well.  Seems some felt some CV3s smelled like bubble gum.

You will also see pink colored inclusions in Allende from time-to-time.

hummm?

I received two slices of this CV3 meteorite and noticed they smell like
fruity gum. It's very weak but definitely noticeable. Yes.I smell all my
meteorites when I get them.it can't be that strange of a ritual. Anyone else
out there with NWA 2140 notice this? Or did my dealer happen to be wearing
his wife's Bath 'N Body Works hand lotion when he packed my slices.

I remember some other C meteorite having similar scent, no?

Kind regards,

Mike Bandli
