[meteorite-list] Estremly rare HOBA IVB ataxite small pieces forsale

[Anne Black]

If those pieces were cut out of the 64g piece of Hoba I sold to Zsolt 
very recently, then yes, it is shale.

And Michael, it seems that very few people on either side of the 
Atlantic are even aware that there is a difference in numeral notation.

The small piece does not match the "cut lines" from the piece it is
supposed to have come from.  The piece it is supposed to be from looks
like all metal, this small piece does not.

It's being sold on the USA eBay site so the seller should use USA
decimal notation to avoid confusion.

Michael in so. Cal.
