Tracy, Zelimir, Bernd and all,
I put pictures of Itqiy and Zakłodzie slices side by side here:

Maybe this helps a little.

Yes Bernd, you are perfectly right. Funny my misspelling the numbers. My
fingers run too fast (actually my phone number starts with 2656...pfff!)
Thanks for the reference.
I just also received the PDF copy from David Weir and read the intro and
the conclusions.
Very interesting...the Itqiy-Zaklodzie-NWA 2526 continues.
BTW, I have a pic of my Zaklodzie slice (14.1 g, 50x45x2 mm).
Not the best quality but I'll sent it to you in a separate mail.
If you feel it is informative for the list and if you can host it on your
site, feel free to send the link.
Thanks again for comments.

Hi Tracy, Zélimir and List,
Zélimir: "I can tell you (qualitatively) that their textures are
definitely different."
Tracy: "Itqiy and Zaklodzie slices, do they actually look similar in
section?"
No, they don't look similar at all! They have totally different grain
sizes. Itqiy has
a grain size that ranges from 0.5-1.7 mm in my specimen, whereas crystals
in my
tiny Zaklodzie slice have an average grain size of < 0.5 mm.
Tracy: "Zaklodzie, however,...don't show the texture very well"
Zaklodzie is very hard to photograph. I've tried but without satisfactory
results.
I've also put my two smallish slices of Zaklodzie and Itqiy under the
microscope
and have taken pictures of them both side by side. Moderate result but one
can
clearly see the difference in texture.
While it was quite difficult to take pics of my Zaklodzie slice, it was
relatively
easy to take pics of my Zaklodzie thin section in XP (cross-polarized)
light.
Zélimir: "Itqiy is very similar to NWA 2656 (btw classified as "E-achon"
in Met.
Bull.)"
Huh?! NWA 2656 is classified as an acapulcoite! My itsy-bitsy 0.29-gram
slice of that acapulcoite is even harder to photograph than the Zaklodzie
:-(
Klaus Keil, Addi Bischoff (2008) NWA 2526: A partial melt residue
of enstatite chondrite parentage (MAPS 43-7, 2008, pp. 1233-1240):
Well, the meteorite Zélimir is referring to, that's NWA 2526
and in the last two sentences of the abstract you'll find this:
"These similarities indicate that NWA 2526 and Itqiy may have formed on
the same parent body. This body was different from the EH, EL, Shallowater
and aubrite parent bodies, and NWA 2526 and Itqiy may represent samples
from yet another, fifth enstatite meteorite parent body."
Best,
Bernd
