Dear List, It's very uncommon to find in an ordinary chondrite, clasts from a different ordinary group. NWA 5764 is such a meteorite.
http://alturl.com/kr58w "together with St-Mesmin, NWA 5764 is the only ordinary chondrite breccia to contain an unmelted xenolith from another ordinary chondrite group." Abstract for the MetSoc meeting of 2009 in Nancy (France): http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/metsoc2009/pdf/5085.pdf And the complete story including photographs on my webpage: http://alturl.com/p6sws I'm offering my thin section (only one available) that shows both lithologies, for sale: http://alturl.com/orfo7 (prepared by Steve Schoner's PetroSlides) As I just don't know what price to ask for this unique thin section, I will sell it for the highest reasonable offer within the next two days.
