Dear collectors,

Today we have the pleasure to present you an ? in our eyes - simply
wonderful stone:

NWA 6024 - a new diogenite.

We all are aware of the Vesta-debris-breccias,
where the bow is drawn from the polymict eucrites with their often typically
light-grey matrix - over the howardites - to the polymict diogenites.
And at the diogenitic end we arrived with NWA 6024.
And to what an end we came!

NWA 6024 is by all means unusual, as it contains these large smashed
blackish pyroxene crystals,
giving it an extraordinary appearance.

This diogenite is looking so characteristically, that we are not aware of
any other similar NWA at present ? so that we strongly presume that it is
probably unpaired and a really new one.

Never before it was so easy for us to advertise a diogenite. ?
Just watch the pictures and you?ll know why!


Here the data:
