Introduction
The possibility of finding an “implant” in the
human body, which turns out to be of “alien origin,” has fascinated a number of
researchers for years. This preliminary catalogue brings together a number of
instances where an analysis of some sort was conducted on what was believed to
be such an “implant.” It is a far from complete collection, merely a starting
point to engage other researchers in contributing other such accounts. I
welcome additional accounts via keithbasterfield@yahoo.com.au

Circumstances:
In
the middle of a range of experiences, after brushing her teeth in September
1991, an object was felt, protruding from her gum. Using her finger-nail she
extracted an object which was sent to John Carpenter for analysis.
Description
of implant: “...looked like a flat piece of brass, square
except for one small corner missing.”
Analysis:
“Analysis
of the object that emerged from my gum in September 1991, was completed in May,
1992. Photographs were taken using a scanning electron microscope. An energy
dispersive spectroscopy scan was also done. The data suggested that the
material was approximately 80% copper and 20% zinc with small traces of
aluminum and silica. The object weighed approximately 6 milligrams. It was
roughly 0.16cm square and 0.03cm thick. It did not react to a magnetic field
and showed no radioactivity. In essence the analysis showed that the material
was consistent with common brass.”

Circumstances:
A
woman, on 8 Dec 92, who is said to have been part of a “mass abduction”
incident, reported an implant behind an eye.
Description
of implant: The particle, mustard seed size, was given to
Derrel Sims.
Analysis:
Analysis
of the 1-1.5mm long by 0.25-0.5mm high, by 0.25-0.5mm wide object indicated it
was hollow. Primary constituents were carbon and oxygen. Silicon, barium &
titanium were present followed by traces of beryllium, sulphur and aluminum.
The material was electrically non-conductive and shown not to be biological. “The
substance is most likely a high molecular weight organic compound. Polymers
(plastics) are the most likely compound to fit the elemental profile.”

“Ron’s
son.”
Circumstances:
On
4 Mar 1992, “Ron” woke to see his 10 year old son, being floated past Ron’s
bedroom door, guided by a misty alien form. Later, at breakfast, his son
coughed up a piece of “metal” a centimetre in length.
Description
of implant: Piece of “metal” a centimetre in length.
Analysis:
Analysed
at Curtin University, it was found to be a very unusual combination of nickel,
silver, zinc, copper, cobalt and ytterbium. The conclusion, however, was that
the object was terrestrial, perhaps part of an electronic probe manufactured in
Sweden.

Description of implant: ½ to ¼ inch thin, wiry object.
Analysis:
Elemental
analysis and electron microscope photographs revealed an interestingly twisted
fibre consisting of carbon, silicon, oxygen, no nitrogen, and traces of other
elements. A carbon isotopic analysis was not remarkable. A nuclear biologist
colleague said the “specimen was not a naturally occurring biological object
but could be a manufactured fibre of some sort.”

Price recalls an abduction at age 8, when lying on a table an object was
implanted in his penis (2:280). It was observed in his penis in 1981 by a
doctor. In 1989 it dislodged and was given to David Pritchard.
Description
of implant: 1 by 3mm object.
Analysis:
Laboratory
examinations of the 1 by 3 mm object were conducted. The overall conclusion was
that: “All of the results obtained at MIT indicate that the Price artifact...is
of terrestrial biological origin.” (2:295)

Circumstances:
In
1989, an object was removed from behind the left ear of a close encounter
witness. She had been aware of the object, but did not want it removed from her
body while she was alive. Betty reported tones in her ear where the object was
placed, and had numerous close encounter experiences.
Description
of implant: 1mm diameter, dark coloured object.
Analysis:
On
6 January 1995 the object was examined by Canadian Engineer George Hathaway,
using a scanning electron microscope. It was found to be primarily composed of
aluminum, titanium and silicon, with traces of iron, potassium, calcium,
sulphur, chlorine and sodium.

Description
of implant: An organic, plastic-like, three-lobed fibre with
an internal structure organized into intricate layers in a seemingly irregular
manner. The specimen was a “tough,” pinkish-coloured, one inch long, kinky, wire
like object. A pathologist found it to be about twenty to thirty microns in
thickness, and it could be stretched out more than three inches. It was
reported to have a gelatinous sheath with bumpy outcroppings; it was clearly
not a hair. A radiologist found it to be radiolucent, thus not metallic.
Neither the pathologist nor the radiologist was able to identify the object, so
further tests were done.
Analysis: Using
the scanning electron microscope for energy dispersive spectroscopy showed the
specimen to consist primarily of carbon and oxygen, with carbon being the dominant
element. It was, in short, a carbon fibre filament filled with hollow area.”

Circumstances:
In
1957, Jesse Long and his brother encountered a man, a “little round house” and
a “praying mantis” being. In 1996, Strieber contacted Long who it turned out
had an object removed from his leg in May 1989. The removal was videotaped and
photographed.
Description
of the implant: Examination of the object by Dr William Mallow of
the Mind-Science Foundation showed it to be “A glass-like fragment resembling
the shard of a broken bottle; about 1.5cm long, 3mm wide tapering to 1mm at the
tip, and 1 to 1.5mm thick; colorless and slightly clouded...”
Analysis:
“The
exact formula for the implant is: silicon, 99.3 percent; potassium, 0.02
percent; calcium 0.27 percent; and iron, 0.03 percent...” In summary, “So it
was now strange on three levels: (1) it wasn’t Bioglass, but it had not been rejected by the
body; (2) it was an unusual formula with a very high amorphous silica content
and strange surface features; and (3) it was electrically conductive which
should have been impossible.”

Circumstances:
A surgical
examination on 19 Aug 1995, of “Patricia Connely’s” left foot revealed a small,
dark greyish object. “It appeared to be triangular or star shaped.” Approx 1/2
by 1/2 cm in size. A second object was removed from the same big toe, shape of
“a small cantaloupe seed and covered with the same dark grey, dense membrane.”
Size 2-4mm. Both objects fluoresced a bright green under a UV light. They
appeared to be metallic. She was abducted approx 27 years ago and only recently
became aware of the implant. (1)
Description
of implant: Small, dark grey. Triangular or star shaped. ½ by
½ cm.
Analysis:
Metallurgical
analysis was undertaken by Los Alamos National Laboratories. Further tests were
conducted at New Mexico Tech. “The T-shaped object is composed of two small
metallic rods. The horizontal portion contains an iron core which is harder
than the finest carbide steel. This rod is magnetic. The iron core is covered
by a complex layer of elements which forms a cladding. One portion of the
cladding has a crystalline band which encircles the rod...It would seem these
are structural objects which serve a purpose...” (3)
