And I think it might be interesting to note this article, where Dr.
Philip Bland can be quoted as stating that Eucrites are not, in fact,
from Vesta.
Go figure.

Jason,
You were a little bit hasty or misleading in your summarizing of Dr
Bland.
see quote below from the article you cited. (and to think that we are
always criticizing reporters for getting it wrong!)
Mike Fowler

""Dr Bland says most basalt meteorites, like the one found in the
Nullarbor, originate from a large asteroid called Vesta but the
Bunburra Rockhole meteorite is different.
"Our little guy can't be from Vesta, the composition is all wrong," he
said.""
