Hello Anne, Alain, AL, and Naklhloids,

Why not "dog" the N-dog - dead or alive, in bits pieces or in pieces?
OK. Enough kidding. If the fertile upper part of the Nakhla soil was
removed (xxx years ago), there should or might be someone who
knows where exactly this topsoil was spread. Maybe something is
left, i.e. bits and pieces (more or less weathered). It's worth a try,
I'd say.

Best Saturday
morning wishes,

Bernd
