Hello everyone. For those of you that own slices of
NWA 2428 the latest information we have received from
UCLA is that it appears that it is structurally a
plessitic octahedrite (IAB sHL). You can read more
about this unusual new iron in the preview of MB89.

For those that own NWA 2678, the lastest word is that
it is a rare IIAB nickel-poor ataxite.



Cheers
