[meteorite-list] NEW PALLASITE

[Michael Farmer]

Hello everyone. I have just been informed that a sample I sent in some time ago is in fact a new Pyroxene Pallasite. I would like to know if any other Pallasites have ever been found in NWA? This stone only weighed 53 grams and was 100% complete. This is a meteorite with 50% pyroxene, it is my understanding that the other pyroxene pallasites have ~5%, mine has 50%!   This to my knowledge is the only Pallasite from North West Africa.   Can anyone give me any more information?
