Hello Matteo, Rhett, and list,

For those who are not scared off by a very technical article, ADS has both=
=20
an abstract and printable pdf online of the article "Primitive=20
Differentiated Achondrite Divnoe and Its Relationship to Brachinites" by=20
Weigel et al, from Lunar and Planetary Science vol. 27 (March 1966) p. 1403.

(You will need to reassemble the link if your browser splits it into two or=

more lines.)

The authors summarize their findings as follows:

"There are three main diagnostic characteristics that lead us to the=20
conclusion that Divnoe is related to the brachinites: (i) similarity of the=
=20
chemical abundances of the major lithophile, siderophile, refractory, and=20
volatile elements, (ii) Divnoe and the brachinites fall on the same oxygen=
=20
fractionation line, and (iii) Divnoe and Brachina contain the same=20
(ordinary chondritic) trapped Xe isotopic pattern."

Best wishes to all,

Piper
