[meteorite-list] Metal in Mike's new find from Oman
Hello All, I just got this message from an overjoyed Mike Farmer. Overjoyed and freaking out because of the following message. Sincerest congrats, you lucky one !!! Bernd, I am at the tucson show and from this hotel no posts go out to the list. Can you please post that I have just received confirmation on my find from Oman, it is a LUNAR, highlands microbreccia full of impact melted clasts of both mare and highlands componants! It is likely to be a uniqe lunar, certainly not paired with any Oman finds! Oh my god Bernd, I am just freaking out that I found my own moon rock with my own eyes and hands! Thanks, Mike __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list

Congratulations to Mike! Way to go big guy! I think we have all holding our breaths hoping that it would be confirmed soon and now that it has been, it's time to celebrate (and maybe pick up a slice or two ;-) !

[meteorite-list] Metal in Mike's new find from Oman
Hello Matteo, Mike, Beda, Rob, and List, metal grains in a lunar meteorite? As much as I would have liked to chime in and say: ... but several eucrites and some howardites do! Look at these examples: DaG 262 - contains metal particles (5-26 wt% Ni) DaG 400 - abundant metal of primitive meteoritic heritage DaG 996 - FeNi metal present as minor phase Dhofar 025, 026, 081 - FeNi metal as an accessory mineral Dhofar 280, 287, 302 - FeNi metal as an accessory mineral NWA 032, 773 - traces of metal SaU 169 - metallic iron is present etc., etc., etc. ... So I guess we can still keep our fingers crossed for Mike's new find from Oman being another spectacular lunar visitor here on Planet Earth! Best wishes for a nice and happy weekend, Bernd __ Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list@meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
