Hi All,   Jay Haynes was curious about the definition of "monomict" (as in monomict breccia).  As you might guess, mono- means "one", so a monomict breccia is made up of one busted-up rock.  A polymict breccia is thus made up of pieces from more than one source rock.   > Also how does one pronounce enstatite.   Emphasis is on the first syllable, with a lesser accent on the third syllable:   en' - stuh - tight'   Cheers, Rob
