[meteorite-list] AD - Wisconsin Meteorite Micromounts : $10+

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks]

Greetings Listoids!

Ok, so I have some tiny pieces of Wisconsin for sale.  These are
intended for the budget-limited collector.  You will surely find
bigger or nicer specimens of this fall for sale, but you will have a
hard time finding one that is less expensive than my $10 micros.

These $10 micromounts are not sold by weight.  I have a glass vial
full of small cutting fragments and I put one of these fragments into
a labelled gemjar.   Earliest buyers get the best pieces.  These are
not specks or dust - these are solid little "crumbs".  If you
absolutely have to know the weight or see a photo of the exact
fragment you are getting, then contact me via email.  I'll be home all
day, slicing and polishing meteorites.  I'll check my email
frequently, so I will get back to you with a photo and a weight.  Some
of these fragments have black fusion crust on them, some show metal
fleck, but none are large enough to clearly show the brecciated
lithology of this fall.

If you want a larger specimen of this fall that does show the
brecciated lithology, I have a nice part slice with black crust around
the edge and it shows this fall's distinctive brecciation.  This part
slice is 1mm in thickness and has a lot of surface area for a small
specimen.  It weighs 780mg and is unpolished.  This is the only
"large" specimen I have, so once this one is gone, that's it.

Your purchase will include a labelled 1.25" gemjar, specimen ID card,
and provenance information.  Which BTW, the provenance on these
specimens is solid.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me off-list.

Thanks for looking and happy hunting/collecting!
