Item for auction is an achondrite that was purchased from Moroccan dealers in July 2012, with 1331g of fresh fusion crusted stones acquired. Dr Tony Irving completed the analyses. Orthopyroxene is Fs24.7-24.8Wo3.7-3.6 (FeO/MnO = 27-28), olivine is Fa25.1-28.3 (FeO/MnO = 48-50), with minor clinopyroxene Fs10.4Wo43.4 (FeO/MnO = 22). The meteorite exhibits a beautiful matrix featuring stunning orthopyroxene crystals and abundant chromite inclusions throughout the 1.41g full slice - PLUS a 2.32g almost fully fusion crusted individual of the same meteorite. Separately the cost would be for these two specimens. Here's your chance to obtain a very intriguing achondrite that masquerades as Johnstown. This meteorite slice comes in a quality labeled display box for protection and years of viewing pleasure, along with a Big Kahuna Meteorites Certificate of Authenticity.
