Hi Shawn: The short answer is, unfortunately, probably not.
Ceres generally looks similar (but not a match) to CIs and CMs (clay minerals). This we have known for many years. However, there also seems to be brucite (magnesium hydroxide) which is an indication of low temperature hydrothermal alteration of olivine-rich(?) minerals on Ceres. This is not inconsistent with what we seem to be seeing on Ceres with what appears to be bright spots (related to craters or geysers). http://www.nature.com/ngeo/journal/v2/n4/full/ngeo478.html Larry > Hello Lister > > I wonder if I have a meteorite from Ceres in my collection? > > Shawn Alan > IMCA 1633 > ebay store http://www.ebay.com/sch/imca1633ny/m.html > Website http://meteoritefalls.com > > Link: > http://phys.org/news/2015-06-nasa-mission-closest-dwarf-planet.html > ______________________________________________ > > Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the > Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com > Meteorite-list mailing list > Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com > https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list > ______________________________________________ Visit our Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/meteoritecentral and the Archives at http://www.meteorite-list-archives.com Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com https://pairlist3.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
