Hello List...=20

In my opinion, Rhett's explaination of how Portales was formed makes a =
great deal of sense. Especially where he discusses the Widmansatten =
structure found in the thick metallic veins associated with the =
metal-rich specimens from that mixed fall.=20

The basic fact that meteorites with the general resemblance of ordinary =
chondrites, plummeted to earth along side of meteorites with an =
appearance similar to that of a silicated iron during a singular =
witnessed fall event is not only unusual, it is unprecidented.=20

By the way, there is an excellent image of a 16 pound ... that's POUND, =
not gram, 'SLICE' of PORTALES VALLEY METAL-RICH METEORITE featured in =
The Third Millennium Meteorite Calendar - 2003 edition.=20

For those who would like to see a full-size image of the calendar page =
featuring the PORTALES specimen, just send me an email reqesting the =
image and I'll email you a copy.=20
