Hello List,
We are happy to announce the availability of a
limited number of complete and partial slices of a
GORGEOUS and scientifically interesting new Lunar
meteorite. Dhofar 1180 is currently being studied by
several groups of scientists. The final reports are
not yet ready, but the preliminary results are quite
exciting. It appears that this is a unique, unpaired
Lunaite, composed of both highland and mare
components, a regolith breccia containing virtually
every type of known lunar material in each slice. You
can read all about the story of its discovery in the
current issue of Meteorite magazine.
As you can see in the photos on the following
websites, the slices are packed full of colorful and
interesting-looking inclusions and clasts. This truly
is one BEAUTIFUL lunar meteorite!
See them and judge them for yourselves at :

See them, and then "reach for your own piece of the
Moon".
