Hello Mike, Jim, and List, Sincere congrats on this new, breathtaking lunar meteorite. It is simply amazing what bounties the Hot Deserts yield !
Not only does it resemble Dhofar 910 (Siggi Haberer's and Norbert Classen's "Black Moon") but it also somehow reminds me a little of ALHA 81005 - and, of course, of Calcalong Creek as well ! Wonder if NWA 2995's and ALHA 81005's mineralogy and chemistry are more or less identical. Visually at least, they look similar though NWA 2995 is much more intensely brecciated + micro-brecciated.
