Hi Adam,

Thanks for the follow-up contest!  I'm afraid I'm not going to
be too original with my guesses as I'm in agreement with several
others that have posted.  I think that #1 may turn out to be
the hardest -- I'm torn between multiple possibilities but
finally settled on something to differentiate myself:

1. coarse monomict diogenite

#2 certainly has all the tell-tale signs of an aubrite (i.e.
enstatite fragments), but I won't be surprised if it turns out
to be something complete different.  I'm a chicken, though, so:

2. aubrite

#3 is a polymict breccia of some sort, reminiscent of Kapoeta
but with a lighter-colored matrix.  I think diogenites can thus
be ruled out.  That leaves eucrites and howardites as front
runners -- hard to choose between them based on the one image.
The light color makes me lean toward a polymict eucrite over
the typically darker gray howardite, so:

3.  polymict eucrite

Can't wait to find out what they *really* are, as it wouldn't
surprise me at all if I'm wrong on all three counts... --Rob
