Actually, Taoudenni was approved in 2010, and the provisional name NWA 5178 was assigned in 2008. NomCom was not aware that the provisional name and Taoudenni referred to the same meteorite until it was reported to us this week.

Hi Bulletin Watchers,

There are many new approvals from the NWA dense collection area.
There are many types, including achondrites.

There is an interesting update - a provisional NWA has been
"discredited" and removed, to be replaced with a name - Taoudenni.
