Ok, take a deep breath. It took years of research on Semarkona to understand its properties. It is clear that this one has some similar properties, but it will take serious research to fully understand how the two compare. Also, Semarkona is a very well preserved fall, with virtually no weathering (at least the piece in the Smithsonian is). Therefore in terms of research value, assuming the same metamorphic history, this is no Semarkona.

So the King is still very much alive. He may have a brother, but his throne is intact for now.
