[meteorite-list] NWA 5789 - any news on this provisional Martian?

2009-08-19 Thread Galactic Stone Ironworks
Hi List,

It's been about 2 months since NWA 5789 was mentioned and I was
wondering if there was any new insights or observations about it that
someone might share?  At one time there was talk that this meteorite
might be a new Martian type which doesn't fit neatly in the current
SNC classification.  Has there been any update on this, and will the
Nom Com approve it as a new type (and what name would they use for the
type?), or will they simply file this one under Shergottite with
anomalous in the notations?

Best regards,

MikeG

Hello Mike,

Here is a link to the most comprehensive, and regularly updated web site 
concerning Martian meteorites:

http://www.imca.cc:80/mars/martian-meteorites.htm

MetBul Provisional site:
http://tin.er.usgs.gov/meteor/index.php?sea=nwa+5789sfor=namesants=falls=valids=stype=containslrec=50map=gebrowse=country=Allsrt=namecateg=Allmblist=Allrect=phot=snew=0pnt=nocode=49469

There is still much scientific work being performed on NWA 5789, so updates 
may take some time.


Best regards,
Greg
