I'd like to invite you to take a look at TS picture #2 on Mark's website
and compare it to my thin section picture of the Forestburg (b) L5 shock
blackened chondrite that can be viewed on Gary's website.

Any thoughts about what you see? Here are the URL's:

"Bernd, Cool. Someone has a thin saw. Who made these?"

I bought this TS from AL many years ago, in 1999 (Feb). Its high quality is clear
evidence that it must have come from David New and his expert slide maker whose
name most insiders will probably know. We all know that quality has its price and
there are worlds between the quality of this TS and some others I have.

"The similarities are amazing."

Yep, that's it and that's why I wrote to Mark, Zélimir and to Roger in a private mail:

"I just noticed that picture #5433_R (complex ovoid barred olivine chondrule - 4.5 mm)
is identical to my complex BO chondrule - in other words our two slides may be "sister
slides", they may come from the same series of cuts."


Cheers,

Bernd
