[meteorite-list] AD: Amazing impact-melt Eucrite!

[star-bits at tx.rr.com]

    I remember when NWA 2910 first came back from cutting.  I went over to Mike's
to paw through all the slices.   I have always been partial to impact melts
and this is a real beauty.   I had a hard time picking out which slice I wanted,   
they were all pretty amazing.   At the time it still wasn't known if it was lunar or a 
eucrite so I had to wait a couple weeks to take it home.  Fortunately for my pocket 
book (but not for Mike and Jim) it turned out to be a eucrite.  Definately a special meteorite.

I agree, that's certainly one of the most beautiful eucrites I've ever seen,
and it's even better in person. I've seen the entire stone back in 2005, and
I bought one of the first full slices of this beauty, more than a year ago.
I'm still very happy with that baby - you just got to love it with all the
vesicles in the melt-flow!

Best,
Norbert
