Hello all,

Selling some rare Brazilian irons:

Maria da Fé
Very rare. I have cut a slice from my collection. Very few grams available to the collector.
First time on ebay!
3.236g etched slice

Soledade (Arvorezinha)
This slice is from what seems to be a new individual recently found of the Soledade meteorite. This new individual
was found in Arvorezina city and some believe it was a new meteorite:

According to Dra Zucolotto, curator of the Brazilian National Museum, the Arvorezinha meteorite is the same as Soledade meteorite. Dra Zucolotto was the classifier of the Soledade meteorite. So I am selling these as Soledade.
