Hi List,

Joe Kerchner's gorgeous new bencubbinite-like material prompted me to  
do a bit of reading about josephinite and awaruite---which is not  
meant to imply his material is either.

I was taken aback to learn that josephinite is known to exhibit a  
Widmanstätten pattern---which i had believed until now to be a fool- 
proof diagnostic characteristic in the identification of a  
meteorite.   I had difficulty locating an image of the same.    
Anyone?   Thanks.
