Just got something super cool in that will make anyone who digs basaltic 
rocks DROOL!

A brand new NWA that is a basalt from someplace other than the HED group 
meteorites - just like NWA 011! The material shares some characteristics of 
NWA 011 (such as pyroxene FeO/MnO Ratios and Cr/(Cr+Al) and preliminary 
oxygen isotopse suggest the material has a genetic relationship with the CR 
parent body. TKW is around 3kg - but I cant say if and when the dealer who 
owns most of it will offer any for sale. I purchased a large specimin and 
will take a slice off of it to show of the interrior. I also have a few 
small pieces left over after takeing a smaple off for analysis - any trade 
inquieries would be welcome.
