 The Nomenclature Committee has not approved any meteorite with this

    Is it just Great Sand Seas 012 that hasn't been approved or have no 
meteorites been approved with a GSS name?  I picked up a nice 6 gram piece of 
howardite from the Carion's in Feb.  They said the name was GSS 010.
    By the way pics of the piece are at the following url for those when like 
to see pics.
