[meteorite-list] ad - rare historic meteorite for sale

[Edwin Thompson]

Hello list members,

If you enjoy collecting historic, rare achondrites that are nearly impossible to obtain then here is a gem for you to add to your collection. I am selling the 15 gram display specimen of Serra De Mage from the museum collection at the I.O.M. This has always been the hardest to get of the four 'holy grail' meteorites from Brazil. For those that don't already know the four holy grail meteorites are; Angra Dos Reis, Governador Valadares, Ibitira and Serra De Mage. I have not had the heart to break up this stone so it remains as it was for many years on display at U.N.M.; a quarter stone with the collection catalog number painted on it. This is a strange and beautiful eucrite like none other I have seen. And the fusion crust is like smoke tinted glass so translucent the one can see right through it to the matrix beneath. There is only this one piece and it is costly. Contact me off list if you have interest.

Thanks,

Edwin
