[meteorite-list] Jepara Pallasite

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks]

Looks heavily oxidized.  Some of the slices show the outer oxidation
rind in cross section.  Those pieces are probably fragile and being
held together by the lacquer or whatever they clear-coated them with.
The fixed-price listings are over $35/g to $40/g.  There are a lot
prettier pallasites on the market for that money.  But it is weird
looking, in an ugly way - like a bulldog.  LOL

Best regards,

MikeG
