[meteorite-list] Unknown irons at ASU

[Martin Altmann]

I don't know Graham, whether that would work,
Because the same iron can look very different, just depending on the angle
of the cut plane through the crystals. Same applies especially to the
Neumann lines.

Laurence, any hints, how long those pieces are already in the collection?

Best!
Martin

Looking at your slices and their widmanstatten patterns it strikes me
there is scope here for a book about identifying widmanstatten
patterns and their subtle characteristics for individual
finds/falls....or is their already one I'm not aware of...now there's
a project for someone!

Sorry can't help with identification, I'd just be guessing....although
pretty sure non of them is Taza.
