Hello everyone. I have just been informed that a sample I sent in some =
time ago is in fact a new Pyroxene Pallasite. I would like to know if =
any other Pallasites have ever been found in NWA? This stone only =
weighed 53 grams and was 100% complete. This is a meteorite with 50% =
pyroxene, it is my understanding that the other pyroxene pallasites have =
~5%, mine has 50%!=20

This to my knowledge is the only Pallasite from North West Africa.=20

Can anyone give me any more information?=20
