Aloha meteorite afficianados,

Big Kahuna offers 2 new meteorites:

NWA 8060 CM2 - tiny separated chondrules, mineral fragments and rare amoeboid CAI are set in a very fine-grained, dark brown matrix containing cronstedtite-tochilinite, kamacite, pentlandite and anorthite. Some chondrules have concentric dust rims and some CAI contain diopside + spinel. Olivine (Fa0.6-62.8), orthopyroxene (Fs1.1=1.7Wo1.2-3.3), subcalcic augite (Fs2.4-4.2Wo32.2-38.8).

NWA 8173 Enstatite Achondrite - a very unusual specimen composed mainly of stubby, prismatic grains of untwinned, pure enstatite (Fs0.0?0.0Wo0.2-0.3) with ~20 vol.% stained, holly-leaf shaped grains of Si-bearing Fe-Ni metal, and accessory alabandite, daubreelite, alkali feldspar, silica polymorph and minor secondary calcite. This specimen is not an aubrite, and the purity of the enstatite is remarkable (even among other known enstatite-rich meteorites).
