Greetings fellow enthusiasts,
I have a new offering for you this week of a recently classified Polymict
Diogenite, NWA 7955 and some significant price reductions on previously offered
material. NWA 7955 is described as a "relatively fresh fragmental breccia
composed predominantly of angular diogenitic orthopyroxene grains. Minor
components(<5 vol.%)included basaltic eucrite clasts, coarse pigeonite and
calcic plagioclase grains derived from gabbroic eucrites, chromite, ilmenite and
troilite and rare angular grains of olivine. Geochemistry: Diogenitic
orthopyroxene (Fs20.7Wo0.8; FeO/MnO = 33), olivine (Fa39.6, FeO/MnO =50; Fa47,
FeO/MnO = 52), host orthopyroxene (Fs51.6Wo 3.1; FeO/MnO = 32), clinopyroxene
exsolution lamellae (Fs26.5-30.6Wo39.7-40.8; FeO/MnO = 29-35)".

Lastly, NWA XXXX an extremely fresh (probable R-5) 147.7 gram fusion crusted

stone today. Contact me with a reasonable offer and it's yours. Images at -

If you think my prices are reasonable, I would appreciate your purchase, if not,
contact me with a reasonable offer. All specimens will be shipped in either an
acrylic display case or Riker box (depending on specimen size) Free shipping worldwide
on any order over $100. I'm also interested in expanding my personal collection at this time,
so I will consider trades for all material with the exception of NWA XXXX. Thanks for your time.
Best,
Steve
