Hi Pete and List,

"they are different Martian meteorites... "
"I can't tell from the description, if they are related or not."

If I got that right, they are two different Martians!

According to Mr. Habibi's own comments, NWA 5790 is a *nakhlite*
whereas Greg's, Stefan's and Martin's NWA 5789 is an anomalous
*shergottite* or even a *new* type of Martian rock!

Best from Germany,

Bernd
