Dear Professor Goel:

Dr. Mason has passed on to me your request for meteorites of May 16, 1972.  Most of the specimens you requested are being sent to you under separate cover.  We are, however, unable at this time to send you specimens of Florence, Brenham, Mount Vernon, Norfork and Helt Township.  We have large quantities of both Brenham and Mount Vernon, but all of this material that we can get to easily is badly weathered and unsuitable for your use.  The Center for Meteorite Studies in Tempe, Arizona, has much more of Norfork than we do.  You might request this meteorite from Carleton Moore.  Why do you want Helt Township?  There is reason to believe that it is just a small transported Canyon Diablo specimen.

When you receive the package please sign, date and return the white copy of the enclosed shipping papers for our records.

Sincerely yours,

Roy S. Clarke, Jr.
Curator
Division of Meteorites
