Kalhari 008, at least, appears to contain solar-wind gases. The
reported textures, mineralogy, mineral compositions (including
Fe/Mn), and chemical compositions are consistent with lunar
origin. Only concentrations of a few elements were listed in The
Meteoritical Bulletin, however.

Maybe I should go through my meteorite-wrong pile
again. I noticed they gave it a weathering grade of
1. I thought metal had to be present in order to
qualify a weathering grade and that they are generally
not assigned to achondrites. The CRE age seems to be
no different than a rock that spent 300 years in the
desert.
What makes this stone any different than a terrestrial
impactite?
