Hi List,Robert Ward and I had preferred that Karl Aston make this 
announcement tothe meteorite list, but Karl is evidently having trouble 
making his post.Rather than rewriting the same message, I've just 
copied Karl's intendednote below and am sending on behalf of the 
group...All the best,Davewww.fallingrocks.com<<Dear List,I am pleased 
to introduce the Conception Junction pallasite to the 
meteoritecommunity.Robert Ward, Dave Gheesling and I have been working 
on this project, inconjunction with Dr. Randy Korotev and Dr. John 
Wasson, for almost two yearsnow, and it is a pleasure to present this 
beautiful pallasite to themeteorite community here on the meteorite 
list.Information about the Conception Junction pallasite, available 
specimens,and its monograph (authored by Dave with contributions from 
Dr. Wasson), canbe found here: 
www.conceptionjunctionpallasite.comLimited material will be available 
to the private collector community, as weare holding specimens in 
reserve for institutional placement.My personal website, 
www.olderthandirtmeteorites.com, is in the early stagesof development, 
but it will contain more information about this new Missouri(my home 
state!) meteorite soon.Warm regards,Karl Aston>>Dave GheeslingIMCA
