Hello All Listees,
Below are two examples of Mesosiderite which are NOT paired. And, i am
curious as to why not.
In my terms, (bear with me) if the Earth were to completely explode and
someone (else) found pieces of the outer mantle, inner mantle and the core,
these samples, with great differences in chemical compositions, would most
likely not be paired even though they all came from the same event and
parent body.
So, what is the exact meaning of "pairing"?

P.S--NWA 2932 is paired with 2923.
