Hello Matteo, Mike, Beda, Rob, and List, > metal grains in a lunar meteorite?
As much as I would have liked to chime in and say: "... but several eucrites and some howardites do!" Look at these examples: DaG 262 - contains metal particles (5-26 wt% Ni) DaG 400 - abundant metal of primitive meteoritic heritage DaG 996 - FeNi metal present as minor phase Dhofar 025, 026, 081 - FeNi metal as an accessory mineral Dhofar 280, 287, 302 - FeNi metal as an accessory mineral NWA 032, 773 - traces of metal SaU 169 - metallic iron is present etc., etc., etc. ... So I guess we can still keep our fingers crossed for Mike's new find from Oman being another spectacular lunar visitor here on Planet Earth! Best wishes for a nice and happy weekend, Bernd ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
