ENSISHEIM “METEORITE 2016” LAST NEWS (June 13, 2016)

Dear meteorite friends, Meteorite-Central List, IMCA members and members of 
other new meteorite associations,

Here is the last series of news for the 17 th “Ensisheim-Meteorite 2016” 
show edition. This completes my first letter “Ensiheim News” sent on April 
26 (still available on request).

I believe everybody could also reach the links to the corresponding flyers 
included in the Ensisheim city web sites (if not, let me know and I’ll be 
glad to send them attached, off List)

TABLE RENTING AND RESERVATION

This year, the demand for tables was high and we have added 4 more tables to 
the usual set of 52 tables, so that you will find dispersed 56 “regular” 
tables along with 6 window-tables in the consignment room, all being now 
fully booked.
The Regency Palace presents the usual room alignment and, in addition this 
year, we have prepared and arranged the front of a new small room, called 
“Spiess room”, located on the right side of the entrance door. While they 
enter the show, all visitors are guided to inevitably pass through this room 
and visit the 4 very interesting tables (3 new dealers).
For memory, after the “Pas Perdus” space, you enter the “Egloff room”, then 
“The Hall” (Anne Black & consignment tables), to end up at the big “Regency 
room”.

After correction and completion of my last compilation, we have this year 81 
dealers (including their family and assistants).

There will be a few more accompanying persons present on some tables. All 
such people can benefit of a free badge, on the basis described in the 
preceding “Ensi news” (April 26)

The 6 consignment flat window-tables will contain meteorites, tektites, 
impactites…from the following collections (list now closed, though I can 
always be flexible…):
JACQUES Benoît (BE), TURONE Oscar (AR), VATAJ Ramë (KS), WENGERT Sigrid 
(DE), LEFEBVRE Etienne (BE), SCHMITT-KOPPLIN Philippe (DE), GOFF Martin 
(UK), GABELICA Zelimir (BE)

ENTHRONING CEREMONIES:
As you might know, this year we decided to continue our long time 
established tradition to recognize selected eminent persons involved in 
specific domains touching meteorites.
They will deserve being enthroned as HONORARY MEMBERS of our newly created 
“ ASSOCIATION OF FRIENDS OF ENSISHEIM METEORITE ”. This honor should be 
considered equivalent to the preceding recognition as member of the St 
George Confraternity of the Ensisheim Meteorite Guardians, a brotherhood now 
dissolved.

This year, next to a couple of local authorities, 5 of our colleagues 
“meteorite aficionados” will become our “Honorary Members”:
Tony IRVING (US), Dieter HEINLEIN (DE), Graham ENSOR (UK), François-Marie 
SARTI (FR-Corsica) and André BESSON (FR-Tahiti).

We recommend attending this part of the welcoming commemorating ceremonies 
that start at 18:30 and that we’ll maintain brief enough so as to save time 
for the friendly drink taste before the dinner party starts (around 20:00)

DINNER PARTY

When you read this, consider you might have less than 48 hours to ask me for 
a reservation for the FRIDAY DINNER PARTY (send the number of people and 
names) before we close the reservation list. This reservation is not a 
strict control but helps the cooks to prepare the appropriate amount of food 
(for memory: special menu based only on guinea fowl.
Those who reserved are kindly asked to precise which menu starter they 
prefer. You can choose between SMOKED SALMON/BRIOCHE our PIE/SALAD. Please 
send me your selection asap !

THEMATIC EXHIBITION

The side-theme 2016 was expected to be “Pallasites”. Despite my anxious 
“call for samples”, I haven’t received any offer, possibly because of their 
relative fragility (?). Even my own samples are not available this time, as 
they are part of another meteorite exhibition at the Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines 
mineral show that follows “Ensisheim-2016” (see below).

Nevertheless the Regency museum windows will contain some prestigious 
samples.
You could probably admire a new large lunar meteorite, “GALB INAL” (Lunar 
Regolith breccia), 1.95 kg (total mass), recently found in Mauritania, 
classification pending (expected to be official for “very soon”). It will be 
brought by Prof. Albert Jambon (Paris). We expect its arriving in Ensisheim 
to be finalized in the forthcoming days though its coming is depending on 
the “heavy negotiations” now still under way with insurers. Let’s cross our 
fingers…
Beside this exclusiveness, Alain CARION kindly proposed to exhibit an 
important part of his private collection of French meteorites (31 samples) 
and 3 other giant classics: “Campo del Cielo”, Millbillillie” and 
“Sikhote-Alin”.

THEMATIC EXHIBITION of meteorites at the Sainte-Marie-aux-Mines (SMM) 
“Mineral & Gem show”.

This show starts as soon as ours comes to an end, namely from Monday June 20 
(or Tuesday June 21) and ends on Sunday June 26.
In one of the side-exhibitions they have planned to set an exhibition 
involving meteorites, with many interesting samples displayed in their 
special room located in the Piscine building of SMM.
They include the GALB INAL new lunar mentioned above (insurance discussions 
here are finalized…!), the French and the 3 giant meteorites from the Carion 
collection, about 40 selected samples of varied interest from my own 
(Zelimir) collection and, last but not least, the original “queen” 
ENSISHEIM, our “jewel” of 53.831 kg displayed in its original historic case 
in the middle of the room.

A more detailed description of this exhibition can be found on the following

WEATHER FORECAST

The today (June 13) most recent weather forecast for Ensisheim can be found 
described and schematized here:

https://www.meteoblue.com/fr/meteo/prevision/14-jours/ensisheim_france_3020152

Note the three days of dry and friendly mild weather miraculously inserted 
within the series of rainy days and weeks we are experiencing right now and 
also expected to continue during the last days of a surprisingly humid June.
Yes, you guessed correctly: your beloved organizing committee is in close 
contact with the weather friendly gods, with whom it is always possible to 
negotiate….

Welcome all to the “ENSI BLAST” that again looks promising, bring your 
smile, have much fun and always keep being happy!
