[meteorite-list] AD - Polymict Diogenite Breccia - NWA 4473 - VERY COOL

Wed Sep 27 14:37:01 EDT 2006

Dear List Members,

I would like to introduce the coolest meteorite I have seem in a VERY long 
time. It is my new Polymict Diogenite Breccia, NWA 4473 (today's "Picture of 
the Day"). I originally purchased it thinking it was lunar, and to be 
honest, I was hoping there was a mistake because it is still so convincing 
(speaking of the 'meteorite-wrong' topic today). Actually, it has been very 
well analyzed and is a very special diogenite. It is an unusual breccia 
composed of polycrystalline clasts and mineral debris derived from impact 
mixing of several different diogenite rock bodies. To see the complete 
description, click on one of the below eBay auction links. I have put the 18 
very best polished slices and 18 complete stones available on eBay under my 
seller name, NaturesVault. If you do not like to use eBay, contact me off 
list to discuss other options, including the 4kg main mass. NWA 4473 will 
also be featured in the November 2006 issue of Meteorite Magazine.

Here are the direct links to what is available:

OK, this list is long enough. There are many other auctions ending today, 
some still at just 99 cents, some priced very well such as planetary and 
don't forget the excellent selection of my new Fossil-Meteorite, NWA 2828. 
All this and more under eBay seller, NaturesVault.

Check out the new Polymict Diogenite Breccia, NWA 4473. Even if you are not 
interested, the pictures are well worth the click of a mouse button! Don't 
forget you can contact me off list if you do not like to deal with eBay 
auctions.

Have fun looking, and if you are bidding, "Thank You"!!

Best regards,
Greg
