hello, Just got this month's edition of the Meteoritics and Planetary Science journal with a study of the Ghubara meteorite - they took orthogonal cores from a nice specimen from the NHM London and essentially analysed it. I am still chewing this article over - obviously there;s a great deal of technical stuff that makes one head spin, but it confirms something I always thought, that Ghubara is quite a special and unique meteorite. I am always amazed how cheaply it sells for, and the beauty of its structures, colours and breccias! I always thought it was a good one - which is why I am so pleased that I dropped my 100g slice on the fireplace and it smashed!!! ...time to replace maybe...
