Hello Jörn,
Since nobody in the know has answered your ponderings yet, I think
I'll add my take on this circumstance. I followed the progress of
analysis of NWA 1827 because I had seen the piece that Nelson had
acquired and I thought it had a unique and interesting appearance. The
preliminary
Joern and David,
In my first inquiry this week I mentioned NWA 1882 (not 1982 that Joern and David
touched on) as being the same material. It is my belief that NWA 1882 is the same
material as NWA 1827/1879. Stefan Ralew, who sold 1882 to me, also believes it to be
the same. NWA 1882 was not
John,
The joint abstract by NAU and UWS we referred to does also mention NWA
1882 as a probable pairing to 1827 and 1879 (as well as probable
pairings for NWA 1912, 1951, 1982, 3055, and possibly NWA 1645, plus
other material totaling at least 26.4 kg).

Hello all,
I see there is an Ebay auction today for a metal-rich diogenite for about $30/g. I
thought with the last go around with NWA 1827, 1879 and 1882 that a metal rich
diogenite did not exist and that these were all classified as MES-C's that sell
for about $10 to $25/g, depending on the

According to the scientists at NAU (Wittke, Bunch), this is a metal-rich
diogenite and not a meso. Check out their nice website:

Thanx for responding and the information provided on this material.
Since you have both types, how do you see them in comparison?
Thanx in advance,

They're nothing alike. One is a mesosiderite with abundant opx
inclusions, and the other is a diogenite with an abundance of free
metal. (plus I believe whatever NAU says :)

Dear List Members,
We have received numerous emails regarding the status of the metal-rich
diogenite (NWA 1827). We generally do not comment on other vendors material
but will make an exception in this case since this material is not being
represented properly. This is a touchy subject but
Dear List,
many thanks to everyone which has been interested in my Mesosiderite
special offer. I also have the official NWA number for the meteorite
now, its NWA1882.
I have heard that the metal rich Diogenite NWA1827 is classified and
submitted also as a Mesosiderite. I think, that this
Hello Stefen and List,
I agree, the metal-rich diogenite (NWA 1827 provisional) is probably the
same as your NWA 1882 and was submitted as a mesosiderite. This is what
happens when a heterogeneous stone is studied and not all the petrologic
boundaries are crossed, no fault of the scientists.
Hello List, who is the NomCom? Is it government, or what?

This is one of the rarest meteorites to have ever
come out of the desert. We are lucky that so much was found. I know that well
over 50% is owned by one man, who will not sell it cheap, he does not need any
money.

and got a whole 350
Mike, Adam and others,
Let's see if I've got this straight?
We started off with Mesosiderites and Diogenites. Now we have Mesosiderites,
Eucrite-rich Mesosiderites, possibly (not sure)Diogenite-rich Mesosiderites,
extra-Metal rich Mesosiderites, Olivine-rich Mesosiderites to plain-old
Yep, that is correct, the desert is wonderful for giving us these enigmas!
