[meteorite-list] Copper found in meteorite

[Mark Bowling]

Cool Greg,

That was just a random NWA?  I thought I heard that Franconia has copper.  As a copper miner, I would love to have a small specimen with some copper, visible or otherwise (hand specimen or thin section).  So any of you who know where I could secure something like that, please let me know.

While I am sure this is more common then I have been able to find out about, it surely is not something that you see everyday.
We found several areas in an NWA (the one with nice inclusions) that has copper present. 
Here is a picture of one of them, enjoy.
