[meteorite-list] NWA 011 Pairing - NWA 4587
Hello, Most of us will by now have read and seen Greg's AD re: NWA 4587. If you are looking for a thorough and in-depth description of this unique meteorite that had at first been classified as a highly metamorphosed, unbrecciated eucrite similar to the vesicular Ibitira and was then found to be similar to the CR clan (!) - by the way, visually it resembles the sugary-textured Agoult - then I would recommend you go to David's excellent website: http://www.meteoritestudies.com/ .. go to UNGROUPED ACHONDRITES and then click on: NWA 011 where you will find a wealth of information on this NWA achondrite beauty! Pardon? Oh, you would like to know if I have purchased some of this unique material? Yes, I must proudly admit. I have. Here is the item number of my beautiful, little partslice just in case you care ;-) Item number: 180075858766 Best achondritic wishes, Bernd __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
Re: [meteorite-list] NWA 011 Pairing - NWA 4587
Hi Bernd and List, Thank you Bernd for directing interested parties to David's web site. He really does have a great deal of information regarding NWA 4587 noted. One question that I have been asked a few times today is, What are those occasional dark inclusions within the orange matrix? In an email I received when I asked the scientists the very same question last month, this is the reply, Based on our experience with NWA 2400 and NWA 2976, the large black grains in the slice of GH-231 (NWA 4587) you sent is chromite and ilmenite... Scientists at the University of Washington will be probing those dark inclusions for further study soon, so perhaps something new will be gleaned by studying larger samples provided by the 530-gram NWA 4587 stone. If we learn more, I will report back here with any additional information.
