Greetings Bernd and all,
That cost me more than a few information cards. Best!

Subject: [meteorite-list] NWA 869 - FYI: an L3-6
Hello Gary and List,
Just a few minutes ago, Gary launched an EBay AD and one of his offerings
is a 1 kg lot of NWA 869 L4-6. Interestingly, this "ugly duckling", which
is, in reality, an absolute beauty from the Hot Deserts of Northwest
Africa,
has been reclassified as an L3-6 chondritic regolith breccia by K. Metzler
et al. in this MAPS article:
Metzler K. et al. (2011) The L3-6 chondritic regolith breccia Northwest
Africa (NWA) 869: (I) Petrology, chemistry, oxygen isotopes, and Ar-Ar
age determinations (MAPS 46-5, 2011, pp. 652-680).
Cheers,
Bernd
