[meteorite-list] Ad Meteorite Sale, Several Rarities! Ad

[LITIG8NSHARK at aol.com]

Good afternoon Folks,

Unlike the late 1990's and early to mid 2000's, I rarely sell  meteorite 
specimens any more. But after a hiatus of nearly a decade, I’ve  decided to 
offer a handful of truly choice meteorite specimens which I have  acquired 
over the years, for the discriminating collector---some of which are  rarely if 
ever seen, and a couple that are literally, all but  unattainable.

1.  A TYPE COLLECTOR’S TREASURE:  NWA 4530, W0/1,  S1, an intensely rare 
Anomalous CO3.05 Polymict Carbonaceous Chondrite found in  Algeria in 2006.  
The TKW was 35.9 grams, consisting of the main mass, a  7.186 gram type 
sample removed from the main mass, and five fragments from that  main mass which 
broke off on impact and which fit together like a puzzle.   Several years 
ago I purchased all but the main mass and the type  sample. 
 
Here are a couple of quotes from the primary researchers of this  meteorite:
 
“NWA 4530 is the most pristine early solar system material I have ever  
seen.”

“There are no CO3.05s or CO3.0s or even CO3.1s that are as  pristine (W/0) 
as NWA 4530… a unique and important meteorite!”

I now offer these incredible specimens to you.  

2.872g with 25% fusion crust:  $650.00
.718 g with 10% fusion  crust:  $200.00
.224 g with 25% fusion crust:  125.00

visiting the  impact site 18 months ago.  $500.00  
Shipping will be $10.00 in the lower 48.

7.  Super Rare  LUNAR----Calcalong Creek.  More than a decade ago I bought 
some of this  rare meteorite from Rob Elliot in the UK.  I sold out of it on 
eBay within  hours of listing it at upwards of $350,000 per gram.  I was 
able to acquire  a small fragment from Anne Black a couple of years ago and am 
letting it go,  reluctantly.  Despite using a gram scale accurate to .002g, 
I am only able  to estimate the mass of this specimen at 2mg to 4mg because 
the scale gives both  measures during weighing.  This specimen is also 
beautiful under  magnification!  

8.  Rare Berthoud meteorite, Witnessed fall of  October 5, 2004, at 1:30 
PM, a meteorite fall was witnessed in Berthoud,  Colorado, and landing only 
100 feet from a young girl and her family.  I  obtained this specimen from 
Edwin Thompson, of E.T Meteorites at nearly twice  this price several years 
ago.  Price slashed to $950.00.  Here is a  link to information about this 
amazing Eucrite:   http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?code=47355 

9.  Finally,  for sale is a beautiful crusted Howardite meteorite, NWA 
5513.  THW was  just 230g.  This specimen has a mass of 19.9g and has about 40% 
fusion  crust.  $150.00.
