Hi, All, I just came across this:
Mercury's Surface Resembles Rare Meteorites http://www.space.com/17727-mercury-surface-rare-meteorites.html http://www.space.com/17727-mercury-surface-rare-meteorites.html ..."The surface is dominated by minerals high in magnesium and enriched in sulfur, making it similar to partially melted versions of an enstatite chondrite, a rare type of meteorite that formed at high temperatures in low-oxygen conditions in the inner solar system." (The price of enstatites just went up!;)) Unless I've missed it, there hasn't been any connection of angrites to Mercury come out of Messenger's analysed data, correct? It's safe to assume angrites have an unknown source but not Mercury, at this time?
