Hi List,  Gold Basin has some beautiful  iron in it.  I just posted to my 
Meteorite Micrograph Gallery (hosted by  the Meteorite Exchange and Meteorite 
Times) some very close up images of iron  flecks found in Gold Basin.

These images are taken in reflected light and  are quite different than the 
standard pass through Xpol images with all the  colors.  This technique is 
a true color look up close.  I finish with  a magnification of 1600X so it 
is a very up close view.

These images are  a "Must See" for fans of Gold Basin or iron in meteorites.

Thanks for  looking, the direct link  is:

If the link give you trouble try dropping the http:// off the front or  
email me if it is still not working right.
