great post and references! With the high heat and lack of water I have wondered if some melt glass may actually be the case for material from Mercury. And did Mercury form on its own or was it knocked off earth at the same time the moon was? If Mercury was once part of earth its isotopes from mantle material knocked off early in the formation of the solar system may test close to melted granite from earth. Cheers Steve
