ROCKS FROM SPACE PICTURE OF THE DAY
May 9, 2006
This stone was purchased in Tucson this year. The stone weighed 113 grams before cutting and now weighs 90.8 grams. It appears that it might be paired with Sahara 03500 (Michel Franco's ungrouped achondrite that has chemical tendencies that almost define a certain group of chondrites, so a very melted chondrite). Here's a link to his find: (http:www.callou-noir.com/TassaMahchi.htm) Similar in any case...the lab results will tell.
