Hello Dean and List,

For those who are interested: "26-51; peak: 36"
refers to the Fs (pyroxene) mol% value.

This is a very interesting howardite with diogenitic and eucritic
components clearly visible under my microscope (I have an 8.5 gr
slice which also shows this textural layering which has so far
only been observed in some Millbillillies).

So get one while they last !

Cheers,

Bernd
