Hello all. We are please to announce another
spectacular new achondrite-NWA 3368(prov.). This is a
particularly showy and beautiful Eucrite, having
diogenite clasts and extremely fine grained basaltic
clasts embedded in a light matrix having a pink hue!
Many of the larger slices also have sizeable pieces of
metal showing! This is a visually striking eucrite,
and the scientists that classified it dubbed it the
"pink eucrite".


Specimens are now up on the website.


Enjoy!
