Mesosiderite, Northwest Africa 4636

Fnd: 2005  

History: The meteorite was collected by an anonymous finder in the western part of the Sahara and bought by the main mass holder at a meteorite fair in Germany from two different dealers.

Physical characteristics: Several dark stones totaling 2850 g.

Petrography: (A. Greshake, MNB and M. Kurz, Kurz). The stony portion of the meteorite consists of dominant pyroxene, plagioclase, and phosphates. Minor phases include troilite, silica, and small metallic Fe-Ni grains. Metal is mostly kamacite.

Mineral compositions and geochemistry: Pyroxene (Fs31.1-35.0Wo4.8-9.1) and plagioclase (An94.5; range An91.8-95.5). Oxygen Isotopes: (I. A. Franchi and R. C. Greenwood, OU) The mean of two replicates δ17O = 2.09, δ18O = 4.38, Δ17O = -0.19 (all ‰).

Classification: Mesosiderite; minimal shock, moderate weathering.

Type specimens: A total of 29 g of sample plus one polished thin section are on deposit at MNB. The anonymous purchaser holds the main mass.

Dho 309 - Lunar meteorite - anorthositic impact melt breccia

Lunar meteorite (anorthositic impact melt breccia)

A grey, partly fusion-crusted 81.3 g stone was found

2002 January 14

the meteorite is a clast-poor impact melt breccia; mineral fragments and lithic clasts are embedded in a matrix of devitrified glass.

Kurat, NHMV): fusion crust is absent; the meteorite is a fragmental regolith breccia containing numerous mineral fragments and clasts of feldspathic rocks embedded in a devitrified glassy matrix; clasts of granulites and possible igneous rocks are abundant and have mainly anorthositic and troctolitic-noritic compositions, impact melt breccias and pyroxenitic clasts are also present; plagioclase An96-99Or0.1-0.2; olivine Fo44-86 (atomic Fe/Mn ~79); orthopyroxene En59-88Wo1-5; clinopyroxene En33-77Wo5-47; accessory minerals are Ti-rich chromite, pleonaste, ilmenite (2-7 wt% MgO), armalcolite, silica, troilite, FeNi metal; composition of the impact melt matrix is MgO 4.8, CaO 18.5, Al2O3 29.1, SiO2 43.5, FeO 3.0 (wt%); the stone is moderately weathered

DaG 1037 - Martain Meteorite: the missing Shergottite link from Mars!

Available only through us!

DaG 1037 is not only one of world's biggest martian meteorites it is also special because it is the missing Shergottite link from Mars! The olivine is of different appearance in DaG 1037 and reveals that it was extremely heavy exposed to a major impact shock event on the Red Planet. The numerous impact shock veins, Melt veins + melt pockets suggest that this specific rock material was exact the zone on Mars that was hit by the asteroid that caused the material to leave Mars! It is very fresh material! glassy texture, large vesicles of up to 12mm with walls of black silica glass!

Although this material looks optically different than the DaG 476, 489, etc. (more glassy texture, large vesicles of up to 12mm with walls of black silica glass) this material is very likely paired with this olivine-phyric shergottites group.

Extensive searches over a long period of time by different groups in later years for this material in this area (DaG 476, 489,DaG735.... DaG 1037) didn't yield any further stone.
