Hmm ?!?

Just noticed something contradictory:

"The winonaites are texturally similar to acapulcoites, but the winonaites
contain coarser grains and abundant crosscutting metal-sulfide veins."

Marvin's pic of the Acapulco thin section shows grains that are coarser
than the ones of NWA 1054 but maybe this is a result of the different
fields of view:

1.8 cm for NWA 1054 and 1.2 cm for Acapulco


Best wishes,

Bernd
