Dear List,

You will 'Melt' for this! A taste from one of the goodies I picked from the 
Tucson Show. Here are the new Impact Melt Breccia specimens from an 
unclassified NWA I purchased. Can you say, "Sweeeet?!"

I normally do not offer special meteorites before classification, but this 
one just got me so excited that I could not wait. One problem, I have to
choose one of these slices to cut down and submit a piece for the type 
sample! I think I will see what is left after offering them and what ever is
left, will become the sample for the lab! That, or the 79.69g slices will 
make for a good candidate. I received the pieces back from Marlin a couple 
days ago and they just won't sit still here any longer! While there was 
nearly a 30% cutting and polishing loss, it was well worth it to expose this 
fantastic matrix!

New ~ Impact Melt Breccia Only 16 Specimens!):
Note: The reflection from light showing the crazy metal only illuminates 
part of the slice, the metal shows to all the way to the edges.
