Hi all,

Professor Colin Pillinger, Dr. Richard Greenwood and others at PSSRI
at the Open University are conducting research into the weathering
effects on oxygen isotope values of Holbrook and Pultusk specimens
recovered over the years. They are after specimens that fit certain
criteria:

1 - Not have been cut in water, ideally not cut at all so as not to
have been contaminated (even by distilled water)
2 - Have a known find date (although if just the find year is known
that might be ok)
3 - Only a hundred milligrams or so are required and this needs to be
from the interior of the specimen, no fusion crust required
4 - They have a spread of Holbrook specimens recovered over the years
but are looking for a 2012 find
5 - For Pultusk they have a 2007 find but need others with known find
dates between 1968 and now

Anyone with any suitable specimens please let me know.

Regards

Martin
