Since this tracks on the terestial O2 line, can this be concidered a planetary meteorite, along with the Lunars, Martians, as well as Asteroid 4 vesta? Would these be the only 4 planitaries so far or has maybe Mecrury checked in with a sample of it's own? Pete IMCA 1733

Hi Pete, Aubrites and enstatite chondrites also plot on the oxygen isotope terrestrial fractionation line (TFL) and up to now they are not proven to be from planets. So being on the TFL doesn't make the meteorite planetary. But I guess it depends on your definition of planetaries, I would only

Hi Jodie, My bias is from a planetary differentiation perspective. The only known meteorites to sample solar system bodies with long-lived (1 BY) igneous activity are lunars and martians. The HEDs might be considered borderline planetaries, since some cumulate eucrites have slightly younger ages
