"Martin, we were discussing Dho 910 yesterday, this one to me is almost 
identical, just different colors in the mixed matrix, while 910 is grey/blue 
and white, this one is white, black, yellow, green, and about all the other 
colors in between."

One of the noteworthy characteristics of Dhofar 910 is that it has abundant
vesicles. Does NWA 2995 also have such a significant amount of vesicles?

Vesicles: the interesting thing about my two little Dho 910 slices (0.25 + 0.93 grams)
is that they are peppered with such vesicles (large and small) but that they are absent
in the anorthosites and the other clasts.
