Hello Tom, Greg and list,

I know that further studies are currently made concerning NWA 5363. I
also know that several recent finds are - strangely - NOT paired to
NWA 5400, despite
the fact that they look very similar.

Here you can see picts of NWA 5363 (please scroll down) and NWA 6292
(paired to NWA 5400!)

...and here are two picts of a thin section of NWA 5363:

Best,
Peter
