Hi Mike,
I have one pairing to NWA 2828, it is NWA 4232 and is the solid brown EL3
material that was not known to be paired until later evidence showed the big
picture of 2828 and its pairings, including AL Haagounia. It took many
months of going to Morocco to unlock that secret and the hard work from Dr.
Irving and Dr. Bunch. Al Haagounia was the result of a French going to the
find site... and is still not an aubrite! ;-)
Best Regards,
Greg

Hi Greg,
I should have been more specific - the "non-NWA" material consists of
all meteorites without an NWA number. :)
Didn't they find more pairings to Al-Hagg/2828? I seem to recall that
at least one other stone was paired to it.
Best regards,
MikeG

Hi List,
I finished converting my micromount storage from 3ml glass vials to
5ml glass vials - the latter have a larger storage capacity and have a
wider neck to accomodate larger fragments. I keep most of my tiny
frags, crumbs, and dust in these glass vials. As of now, I have 2
drawers filled with about 48 bottles each - this holds the majority of
my micromount inventory. On average, each vial will hold about 2-5g
of material, depending on the size of the fragments.
I like these small bottles because they are air-tight, compact, and
they let me see the contents at a glance. I also like the "old
school" look of glass with corks.
On the right is the NWA drawer, which holds all of my NWA micros. On
the left is the drawer that holds named finds and falls (or non-NWA
Saharans)
