hello list hello all thanks for all your emails , i was happy to answer everyone. i enjoy writing to you; its nice to have friend all over the world ,i have sold nwa1460 stone to nelson oakes in usa his email is [EMAIL PROTECTED] website is http://www.meteorites-r-us.com. please email to nelson oakes he is the best partner i have in usa , he could sell the nwa1460 and the ungrouped primitive achondrite , and the milted breccia. he agree to sold 10 gr from the 70 gr and he want to keep the rest. after you asked me abaout nwa 1460 how it could be paired with nwa480, here is the scientists analisis by dr tony irving from whashington dc. Northwest Africa 1460 Morocco Purchased 2002 June Martian meteorite (basaltic shergottite) Small fragments of a 70.2 g complete stone with a fresh, black fusion crust were provided to A. and G. Hupé (Hupé) for petrological analysis by a Moroccan dealer habibi abdelaziz in 2002 January, and eventually the stone was purchased by N. Oakes (Oakes) for more detailed studies. Dimensions: 47 mm by 34 mm by 27 mm. Classification and mineralogy (A. Irving and S. Kuehner, UWS): Very fresh and coarse grained, with large pale yellow-green pyroxene and glassy maskelynite laths clearly visible. Ophitic texture. Zoned pyroxenes have cores of orthopyroxene (Fs20Wo3, FeO/MnO = 35.3) mantled by augite (Fs26Wo29, FeO/MnO = 57.0) with rims of Fe-rich pigeonite (Fs76Wo16, FeO/MnO = 43.7). Plagioclase (maskelynite) is relatively homogeneous (Ab51Or1-2). Fe-bearing merrillite, Cl-bearing apatite, exsolved Fe-Ti oxides (titanomagnetite and ilmenite), chromite and pyrrhotite also are present. Fine symplectitic intergrowths of fayalite+Fe-Ti oxide+silica occur along grain boundaries between merrillite and pigeonite. Textures and mineral compositions are essentially identical to those in the 28 g basaltic shergottite NWA 480, with which this sample is considered to be paired. Specimens: type specimen, 15 g, and two polished thin sections, UWS; main mass, Oakes.
