[meteorite-list] Dunite meteorites?
Wondering why no predominately olivine or dunite meteorites exist? Does this have something to do with proto planet size and crustal evolution?

Hi Jack and List, Jack asked, Wondering why no predominately olivine or dunite meteorites exist? I actually have two different 'dunitic' meteorites: NWA 7822 Ungrouped 'Dunitic' Achondrite (90% Olivine): http://www.naturesvault.net/meteorites/nwa7822.html (This one has an extremely low TKW and just one piece is left on the web site. The 5.93g slice that is marked 'Sold' will likely be split into 3 or 4 pieces so there 'might' be a couple small pieces available soon) NWA 7630 'Dunitic' Ureilite (90% Olivine): http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meteor/metbull.php?code=56613 (I do not have this one listed on my web site yet, but do have prepared slices.

Re: [meteorite-list] Dunite meteorites?
Hi Mendy, If you look at the literature, there are only a handful of brachinite oxygen data sets, so anomalous may be a poorly defined term. The brachinite trend could actually intersect or cross-over the TFL -- perhaps that is what this one is doing. Or, it could be terrestrial contamination, or as you suggest a exotic component, hard to tell at this point. Carl * Carl B.

Hi All who showed interest so far in the 'only' Dunitic Ureilite, NWA 7630 (so far as I can see)! I will put together a listing and photos over the next few days and let you know what is available of this very cool Dunite. Thank you for your interest!!!

Re: [meteorite-list] Dunite meteorites?
Oh, there are other ureilites with at least 90% olivine. A very quick search finds that Singletary and Grove (2003) list GRA 95205 and GRO 95575 with 94% and 90% olivine, respectively.

Re: [meteorite-list] Dunite meteorites?
Hi List, As a collector, the first meteorite I ever encountered that was described or labeled as a dunite was NWA 2968. I bought a micro-crumb of it off eBay from Noah Daleo back in 2007 or 2008. According to the Met Bulletin write-up, it's composed of 95% olivine. At one point, there was some discussion that dunites were from Vesta and would be a part of the so-called HEDO group. Now, the O seems to have fallen out of fashion and the preferred nomenclature seems to be HED. Perhaps we would have had HEDOD Best regards and happy huntings, MikeG -- - Web - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/galacticstone Twitter - http://twitter.com/GalacticStone Pinterest - http://pinterest.com/galacticstone - On 7/24/13, Jeff Grossman jngross...@gmail.com wrote: Oh, there are other ureilites with at least 90% olivine.
