Aloha mai kakou,

As NASA's Dawn spacecraft nears its first destination, Asteroid 4 Vesta for a July 2011 arrival, great excitement and anticipation surround its rendezvous and orbit of the protoplanet. Will data obtained from Dawn confirm or refute Vesta's connection with HED meteorites? Only time will tell.

But for now, Big Kahuna is offering the newest basaltic eucrite approved by the Meteoritical Society, NWA 6573. A fresh specimen with subophitic texture, composed of exsolved pigeonite, calcic plagioclase laths, silica polymorphm ilmenite, Ti-Chromite, troilite and rare zircon, with only 37g of total known weight. Ten freshly crusted slices and three endpieces cut expertly from Kern Industries wire saw, packaged in high quality labeled display cases or micro membraneboxes, along with a certificate of authenticity.

Grab'em while you can...and, more material can be found (from Vesta and other parent bodies) in my regularly scheduled ebay auctions that end this Saturday:
