Oh, I'll give you the colors of the rainbow! Greg has arranged for me to examine the thin section used to classify this OD. I'll post when the images
are up.

Speaking of Greg, he has provided me with the description (of a pairing NWA 4587) for this months Meteorite Times Micro Vision on NWA 4901 the anomalous achondrite also paired with NWA 011. Real cool stuff! there are structures
in it that I have never seen before.

Paul should have  this month's issue up in a couple days.

All my past Micro Vision articles have been incorporated into my Micrograph Gallery menu. This makes it much easier to find what you are looking for.

It's so great (and so unusual) when a meteorite is  sufficiently
visually engaging that folks on the list post their enthusiasm for the

Reminds me of a recent story.   This fellow called to let me know he
had a meteorite for sale.   When I asked him to describe it he said,
"It's got almost all the  colors of the rainbow and it's kind of
iridescent,"  to which I  replied, "Sir, with all respect, meteorites
don't look like  that."  Without skipping a beat, "And that's exactly
why mine is  worth so much!"   ;-)

Seems like we should all obtain a sample  of 5480.

were available."

In the past I have sent different material out to make thin
sections, I don't have the time to try and fill all of the niches.
Maybe Anne Black or someone else who have the lead on the best  thin
section makers would like to pursue it?

"Thank You" to all who have purchased some of the "Incomparable
Olivine Diogenite", NWA 5480!

Best regards,
Greg

there are enough  list members that would committ to purchasing one
if they  were available.

All the best,
Frank
