Dear Listees:

Greetings all.

I'd like to invite you to view some gorgeous, oriented, fully-crusted 
Millbillillies. These are some of the nicest stones I've ever seen. 
They're not cheap but they are spectacular. Some of them have radiating 
flowlines that are extraordinary. These specimens came from an 
Australian colleague of mine, who acquired them at the site from one of 
the finders. He's been sitting on them for years, and I just got hold 
of them very recently.

Even if you're not shopping, please check out the photos. These little 
guys were tough to shoot and are really worth seeing:

The now-famous "Green Brenham" which Steve and I excavated during the 
fall of 2005 is nearly sold out. Allan Lang prepared the slices for me, 
and we were both rather happily stunned to discover that the mass was 
composed entirely of green crystals. These slices are stable, and 
packed with bright olive and emerald-green crystals. I have a few very 
nice quarter slices left, and that's it. All of my Brenham pallasite 
specimens come with the following:

- Custom 5 x 7 color print of the mass prior to cutting
- Signed, custom 5 x 7 color print of yours truly standing in the 
excavation pit holding the entire mass
- Signed, limited edition postcard of Steve Arnold with his 3/4-ton 
Brenham
- Signed, full-color 8 1/2 x 11 Certificate of Authenticity from the 
Brenham Meteorite Company (including find coordinates)
- Hand made specimen ID card

This actual Brenham was featured in the cover story of the February, 
2006 issue of "Meteorite" magazine, "Field of Dreams: Rediscovering the 
Brenham Pallasite," so it has a unique provenance. I'll throw in a 
photocopy of the article if requested.

I also have a few superb Brenham siderite slices left, with a dazzling 
etch pattern and wild schribersite inclusions. There were prepared by 
Mike Miller, and if you want BIG Brenham siderite slices, talk to Mike, 
as he prepared some for himself, from a larger mass and they are 
excellent.


Next up: super-excellent Campo del Cielo irons with natural holes, 
oriented specimens, and some extra-special highly sculptural pieces 
that are AAA quality, and surely the best in this size range I've ever 
come across.
