Abstract–Meteoritical Bulletin No. 87 lists information for 1898 newly classified meteorites, com-prising 1048 from Antarctica, 462 from Africa, 356 from Asia (355 of which are from Oman), 18from North America, 5 from South America, 5 from Europe, and 3 from Australia. Information is pro-vided for 10 falls (Beni M’hira, Elbert, Gasseltepaoua, Hiroshima, Kilabo, Neuschwanstein, ParkForest, Pê, Pétèlkolé, and Thuathe). Two of these—Kilabo and Thuathe—fell on the same day. Orbitalcharacteristics could be calculated for Neuschwanstein. Noteworthy specimens include 8 Martianmeteorites (5 from Sahara, 2 from Oman and 1 from Antarctica), 13 lunar meteorites (all except onefrom Oman), 3 irons, 3 pallasites, and many carbonaceous chondrites and achondrites.

INTRODUCTION

The Meteoritical Bulletin is a compilation of announcementsby the Meteoritical Society’s Meteorite NomenclatureCommittee of newly described and classified meteorites.Several conventions are followed. Shock classification isafter Stöffler et al. (1991). The scale of Wlotzka (1993) isused for weathering grades, except as noted. For chondrites, aslash in petrologic type, shock stage or weathering grade,(e.g., H5/6) indicates a transitional assignment. A hyphen inpetrologic type assignment (e.g., H5–6) indicates the range oftypes observed in a breccia. Group names such as “L(LL)”indicate uncertain assignments, with the less probable groupin parentheses. “Ungrouped” indicates that a meteorite doesnot fit existing classifications. “Anomalous” is used if ameteorite can be assigned to an established class, but differsfrom other members of that class in a significant way. Allitalicized abbreviations refer to addresses tabulated at the endof this document.

Large twinned pigeonite (En85Wo7)crystals up to 16 mm in size poikilitically enclose olivine andpigeonite domains with typical, fine-grained (avg. grain size0.5 mm), granoblastic ureilite texture. In the typical-textureddomains, olivine and pigeonite have homogeneous cores(Fo92; En85Wo7) and reduced rims; intergranularcarbonaceous material mainly consists of graphite flakes.Moderate undulose extinction in silicates indicates moderateshock (S2). Weathering is moderate. Specimens: typespecimen, 5 g and thin section at MNA-SI; main mass withanonymous finder.

A 22.6 g, dark, ~50% fusion crusted, stony fragment wasfound in Dar al Gani by a private collector. The specimen ismoderately oxidized and irregularly fractured. On slicing, itshows an homogeneous lithology. Shock veins of dark glasscross-cut the entire specimen. Classification and mineralogy(L. Folco, MNA-SI): abundant fine-grained, skeletal olivinecrystals (Fo82) are set in a mesostasis mainly consisting ofrhyolitic glass plus quench crystallites of pigeonite(En54Wo9). Minor mineral constituents include enstatite(En83Wo2), augite (En37Wo30), and traces of chromite,sulfides, Fe-Ni metal and phospates. Undulose extinction andplanar fracturing in olivine indicate moderate shock. Thinveins of secondary carbonates are present, most likely due toterrestrial weathering. Major element composition (P. Bland,OU) estimated from the mean of 256 broadbeam microprobeanalyses (spot size 20 µm,) indicates a komatiitic IUGScomposition (SiO2 = 47.22 wt%, Na2O + K2O = 1.53 wt%,MgO = 29.87 wt%) with chondritic Mn/Mg 7.5 × 10−3.Oxygen isotopes (I.

Dhofar 500 18°23.2′N, 54°12.2′EOmanFound 2000 January 24Achondrite (ungrouped)

A stone weighing 116 g was found in the Dhofar region ofOman. Mineralogy and classification (C. Lorenz and M.Ivanova, Vernad.): the rock is a metabreccia and consists of atleast three different lithologies: pyroxene-feldspar, pyroxene-olivine and pyroxene-olivine-feldspar. In texture thelithologies vary from medium to coarse-grained, poikiloblasticto equigranular. Mineral chemistry: olivine Fa4.8; CaO 0.13wt%, Cr2O3 0.42 wt%; orthopyroxene is En95Wo2, Fe/Mn ratiois 6 (at); feldspar is An13–34. Olivine and pyroxene are of thesame compositions in the lithologies. The minor phases are Ca-rich augite En52Wo44; Cr-rich troilite (up to 3.11 wt% Cr),chromite and rare minute grains of Fe-Ni metal.

Many stones weighing a total of 204 g were found in the Dhofarregion of Oman. Mineralogy and classification (M. Ivanova,Vernad; L. Taylor, UTenn): the meteorite consists ofchondrules, 0.08–3.2 mm in diameter, (0.86 mm in average) ofdifferent types, PO, POP, BO, RP, CC, and their fragmentsembedded in a fine-grained matrix. Chondrule/matrix ratio is1.1. Olivine and low-Ca pyroxene have large compositionalranges: olivine has Fa1–50, CaO 0.2 wt%; Al2O3 0.06 wt%,Cr2O3 0.09 wt%, PMD of Fa 42%; low-Ca pyroxene is Wo2–

3.5En53–95; chondrules contain glassy mesostasis. Accessoryminerals include: pigeonite, chromite, troilite, rare hydroxides,and rare FeNi metal (Ni 5 wt%; Co 0.4 wt%).Thermoluminescence studies (A. I. Ivliev, Vernad) indicatepetrologic type 3.2/3.3. The meteorite is heavily weathered,and some silicates are altered. Weathering grade is W5; shockstage is S1. Based on the very low abundance of FeNi metal andhydroxides, Dho 535 could belong to either the LL or Rchondrite groups but with very abundant matrix. The averagesize of chondrules is consistent with LL chondrites. Ahistogram showing the distribution of olivine is similar tounequilibrated ordinary chondrites. FeNi metal is mostlykamacite, typical for H chondrites and unusual for Rchondrites. Sulfide assemblages and chromite chemistry arealso unusual for R chondrites. The absence of refractory objectsand olivine chemistry distinguish Dho 535 from C3 chondrites.Oxygen isotope composition (R. N. Clayton, UChi): δ18O =+8.56‰; δ17O = +4.96‰, ∆17Ο = 4.51‰ is unusual for anychondrite type. Specimens: type specimen of 46.8 g and thinsection, Vernad; main mass with anonymous finder.

Hammadah al Hamra 317 11°35.58′N, 29°21.06′ELibyaFound 2001 springEnstatite chondrite (EL4)

Two dark brown stones, a larger one of 103 g and a smallerone of 2 g were found in the Hammadah al Hamra region.Classification and mineralogy (G. Pratesi, V. Moggi Cecchi,MSP): the partly fusion-crusted stone is shield-shaped; well-


defined chondrules and 50 µm sized enstatite crystals indicatepetrologic type 4. Major phases are enstatite (En98.5Wo0.9),kamacite (Fe = 90.46, Ni = 7.51, Si = 0.57, P = 0.53, Co =0.47 wt%) and troilite; other minor phases are diopside(En52.91Wo46.85) and plagioclase (An26.60) in very small grains(<5 µm). Neither niningerite nor alabandite was found. Theplagioclase composition, as well as the presence of diopside,is unusual compared with other known EL chondrites. Insidethe chondrules, which have an average size ranging from 600to 1200 µm, very small rounded grains containing a calciumchloride phase (1–3 µm size) have been observed. Based ontexture, mineralogy and chemistry (mainly An content ofplagioclase >13 mol% and Si content of kamacite <1.9 wt%;Keil, 1968; Zhang et al., 1995) the meteorite is classified as anEL4 chondrite. Terrestrial weathering grade is rather low(W1); optical features (undulatory extinction of enstatite)indicate that the sample is weakly shocked (S3).

Neuschwanstein 47°31.5′N, 10°48.5′EBavaria, GermanyFell 2002 April 6; 20:20 hrs (UT)Enstatite chondrite (EL6)

A brilliant fireball, shaking the ground and rattling windows,was reported by many eyewitnesses in Austria and Germany.The fall circumstances were well documented by theEuropean Fireball Network (EFN). Reduction of the EFNphotographs allowed calculation of the orbit and impact area(Spurny et al. 2002) which ultimately led to the recovery of asingle stone of 1.75 kg on July 14, 2002. Gammaspectrometry (G. Heusser and H. Neder, MPI-K) of the stoneindicates a small pre-atmospheric radius of less than 20 cmmainly from the low 60Co activity of 1.2 ± 0.5 dpm/kg. Short-lived radionuclides strongly indicate that the recoveredmeteorite was indeed the object that fell on the above date.Classification and mineralogy (A. Bischoff, Mün and J.Zipfel, MPI): the meteorite has a metamorphic texture with asmall number of chondrule relics. Major phases are enstatite(FeO <0.1 wt%), plagioclase (Ab82), and metal (~1.5 wt% Si).Large crystals of sinoite (up to 200 µm) and graphite (up to700 × 200 µm) are present. Additional phases so far observedare schreibersite ((Fe,Ni)3P), troilite (FeS), oldhamite (CaS),daubreelite (FeCr2S4), alabandite, ((Mn,Fe)S), and an SiO2-phase (containing 1–2 wt% Al2O3). Bulk chemistry:abundances of moderately volatile lithophile elements aretypical for EL chondrites, low Mn/Mg = 0.010 and Na/Mg =0.045, and low Zn concentration (Zn <20 ppm); highconcentrations of siderophile elements, e.g., Ni = 1.94% andIr = 0.76 ppm, reflect higher than usual metal contents for ELchondrites. Based on texture, mineralogy and chemistry themeteorite is classified as an EL6 chondrite. Optical featuresindicate that the rock is very weakly shocked (S2). Theresidence time of about three months on the ground resultedin the first signs of weathering (W0/1). The exposure age is

~48 Ma; trapped subsolar noble gases are present (L. Frankeand L. Schultz, MPI). Specimens: type specimen, 20 g, MPI;thin sections: Mün; main mass, unknown.

Northwest Africa 998Algeria or MoroccoPurchased 2001 SeptemberMartian meteorite (nakhlite)

A. and G. Hupé (Hupé) purchased, from dealers at the TucsonGem and Mineral Show in 2002 February, the main massfrom a 456 g stone that had been acquired at an unspecifiedsite in western Algeria or eastern Morocco in 2001September. Dimensions before cutting: 72 mm by 65 mm by48 mm. Classification and mineralogy (A. Irving and S.Kuehner, UWS): a friable, dark green rock with minor orange-brown alteration products that probably are of pre-terrestrialorigin. It is composed mainly of subhedral, olive-green,complexly zoned subcalcic augite (Fs22Wo39) withsubordinate yellow olivine (Fa64), orthopyroxene (Fs49Wo4),interstitial plagioclase (Ab61Or4 containing 0.1 wt% SrO, andexhibiting normal birefringence), titanomagnetite,chlorapatite and pyrrhotite. The overall texture is that of ahypabyssal, adcumulate igneous rock, and the apparentcrystallization sequence is olivine, orthopyroxene,titanomagnetite, augite, apatite, plagioclase. There is a weakpreferred orientation of prismatic pyroxene crystals, many ofwhich have very distinctive zoning, with cores of augitesurrounded by irregular, inverted pigeonite rims (nowconsisting of orthopyroxene with fine augite lamellae). Trainsof tiny melt inclusions are present along healed fractureswithin pyroxene; microprobe study confirms that most ofthese are K-Na-Al-bearing silicate glass, but some areintergrowths of glass and Fe-bearing carbonate, which mayrepresent quenched immiscible silicate-carbonate liquids.Symplectitic intergrowths of titanomagnetite and low-Capyroxene are present at grain boundaries between large,discrete olivine and titanomagnetite grains, but are notpresent around chromian titanomagnetite inclusions withinolivine. These observations suggest that a pre-terrestrialoxidation process produced the symplectites, and involvedhigh temperature, deuteric fluid infiltration along grainboundaries; such fluids also may have produced the irregularpigeonitic rims on augite crystals. Secondary (probably pre-terrestrial) ankeritic carbonate, K-feldspar (some Fe-bearing),serpentine (?), calcite and a Ca sulfate are present on grainboundaries and within cracks in augite. Oxygen isotopecomposition (D. Rumble, CIW): replicate analyses of acid-washed augite by laser fluorination gave δ18O = +3.9 ± 0.2‰;δ17O = +2.4 ± 0.1‰; ∆17O = +0.30 ± 0.02‰. Specimens: typespecimens, 20 g, UWS, 20 g, FMNH, and two polished thinsections, UWS; main mass, Hupé.


Northwest Africa 1109MoroccoPurchased 2001 October/DecemberAchondrite (eucrite, polymict)

A. and G. Hupé (Hupé) purchased four stones totalling 2.54kg from a Moroccan dealer in 2001 October and December,but the total weight of this material including that held byother collectors is estimated to be nearly 6 kg. The stonesshow distinctive white and grey mineral and lithic clasts in alight tan matrix Classification and mineralogy (A. Irving andS. Kuehner, UWS): polycrystalline clasts include basalticeucrite (ophitic texture, variable grain size, mainly anorthite +pigeonite Wo16Fs57, FeO/MnO = 30); cumulate eucrite(coarse grained, equigranular, mainly anorthite + exsolvedpigeonite with accessory silica); rare eucritic breccias anddistinctive ferroan intergrowths (fayalite + hedenbergite +silica ± troilite). Mineral clasts include homogeneouspigeonite grains (Wo15Fs31, FeO/MnO = 26), pigeonite grainswith clinopyroxene exsolution lamellae (FeO/MnO = 30–33),anorthitic plagioclase (Ab6-Ab10) and a silica polymorph.Accessory minerals in clasts and matrix include ilmenite, Femetal, chromite, baddeleyite and apatite.

Northwest Africa 1195MoroccoPurchased 2002 March/April Martian meteorite (basaltic shergottite)

A. and G. Hupé (Hupé) purchased a 50 g fragment of a brokenstone with a distinctive, thin weathering rind collected bynomads near Safsaf, Morocco in 2002 March, andsubsequently purchased the remainder of the same elongatedstone (total weight 315 g). Dimensions of the reassembledstone are 133 mm × 43 mm × 37 mm. Classification andmineralogy (A. Irving and S. Kuehner, UWS): olivinemegacrysts (up to 4 mm) are set in a groundmass of low-Capyroxene and maskelynite (Ab37Or0.5 to Ab41Or0.7) withminor Ti-chromite, pyrrhotite, ilmenite and Mg-bearingmerrillite. The euhedral to subhedral shapes of most of theolivine grains suggest that they are phenocrysts rather thanxenocrysts. Olivine exhibits strong compositional zoning(cores Fa19, FeO/MnO = 54; rims Fa40, FeO/MnO = 62) andcontains abundant inclusions of chromite, clinopyroxene,orthopyroxene, and pyrrhotite. The groundmass low-Capyroxenes are zoned from cores of pigeonite (Wo7Fs26, FeO/MnO = 37.1) or, less commonly, orthopyroxene (Wo4Fs23,FeO/MnO = 37.0) to rims of more Fe-rich pigeonite(Wo12Fs33, FeO/MnO = 36.6). Occurring very rarely ongroundmass pyroxene grains are patchy overgrowths of anFe-rich mineral (possibly related to chamosite or chlorite,with 35 wt% FeO, 5 wt% Al2O3, 1.5 wt% MgO and a lowoxide sum of 85 wt%, suggesting the presence of water orhydroxyl). Calcite occurs sparsely along grain boundaries and

as thin veinlets. Texture and mineral compositions are similarto those in olivine-phyric basaltic shergottite DaG 476/670,but olivine is much more magnesian than in other olivine-phyric basaltic shergottites SaU 005/008 and NWA 1068/1110. Specimens: type specimen, 20 g, and two polished thinsections, UWS; main mass, Hupé.

Northwest Africa 1296MoroccoFound 2001 spring Achondrite (angrite)

The single stone weighs 810 g and appears quite fresh with avery thin and shiny, dark-grey, typical fusion crust. It wasfound in Morocco in spring 2001 by an anonymous finder andafterwards bought by a dealer in Bouarfa (Morocco).Petrography, mineralogy, chemistry and classification (A.Jambon, UPVI; J.-A. Barrat, UAng; O. Boudouma, UPVI):The rock has a fine-grained magmatic texture, indicatingrapid cooling, and is significantly different from otherangrites. Numerous small vesicles are present, some of whichfilled with carbonate. Olivine (≈Fo50) was the first phase tocrystallize, as feathery chains a few micrometers in thickness.It is closely associated with anorthite (An98–100) overgrowingthe olivine crystals. These composite chains are separatedfrom one another by intergrown elongated Al, Ti-richdiopside. Both olivine and pyroxene are normally zoned up tomg# <0.01. The most magnesian pyroxene and olivine havemg# of 0.52. The Fe-rich olivines also contain up to 12 wt%CaO, a typical feature of angrites; they appeared afterplagioclase crystallization stopped at the end of thecrystallization sequence when co-crystallization of olivinewith sub-calcic kirschsteinite is observed. Minor phases arepyrrhotite, Ca-phosphate, a silico-phosphate similar to thatfound in d’Orbigny and titanomagnetite. The bulk rockanalysis is that of a typical angrite like d’Orbigny or Sahara99555, with a (Ca/Al)CI of 1.52. Extensive trace element dataconfirm that alkali elements are strongly depleted. Ba isslightly enriched probably as a result of terrestrial alteration;Sr is not. All refractory lithophile incompatible elementsexhibit a flat chondrite normalized pattern with an enrichmentof 13 × CI. Specimens: main mass, Moroccan Import,Asnières, France; type specimen, 49 g, UPVI.

Northwest Africa 1457MoroccoPurchased 2001 December Achondrite (winonaite)

Seven small stones with a total weight of 52 g were purchasedfrom a Moroccan dealer by A. and G. Hupé (Hupé) in 2001December. Classification and mineralogy (A. Irving and S.Kuehner, UWS): medium-grained, equilibrated metamorphictexture with triple junctions among mineral grains. Abundantenstatite (Fs6Wo1.5, FeO/MnO = 15) and forsteritic olivine(Fa5, FeO/MnO = 18) with subordinate diopside (Fs2.8Wo44,


FeO/MnO = 8), sodic plagioclase (Ab82Or4), Ni-poor Fe-Nimetal, troilite, schreibersite, Cr-rich chromite, and Cl-richapatite. Daubreelite occurs as blades within some troilitegrains. Rare chromite grains (up to 20 µm; 66 wt% Cr2O3; Cr/(Cr+Al) = 0.870; Mg/(Mg+Fe) = 0.682) are associated withtroilite. Grain boundaries are veined by heterogeneous Ni-free iron oxides and/or hydroxides. Oxygen isotopecomposition (D. Rumble, CIW): analyses of two whole rockfragments by laser fluorination gave δ18O = +5.1 ± 0.1‰;δ17O = +2.3 ± 0.1‰; ∆17O = –0.40 ± 0.03‰.

Saharan meteorites from Morocco and surroundingcountries

(298 meteorites)Northwest AfricaPurchased or found 1999–2002

Many meteorites lacking first-hand documentation of the findlocation are being sold by Moroccan rock and mineraldealers, and by people from other countries who havecollected material in Morocco. These meteorites are all soldas Moroccan finds, but there are plausible reports that somewere actually collected in Algeria or Western Sahara. Othermeteorites have been reported from this region with whatappear to be precise find locations. The reliability of localityinformation associated with these meteorites is difficult toassess owing to the anonymity of all of the finders and mostof the original sellers, and because the NomenclatureCommittee lacks the resources to investigate. All meteoritesfound in this region are numbered in a “Northwest Africa”(NWA) series. The Nomenclature Committee considers itpossible that differently numbered specimens are paired witheach other or with other named meteorites and some mayeven be derived from the same individual object. Table 8 lists298 specimens of this type.

Sayh al Uhaymir 169 20°34.391′N, 57°19.400′EOmanFound 2002 January 16Lunar meteorite (KREEP-rich mafic impact melt brecciaand adhering regolith)

A complete, light grey-greenish rounded stone (70 × 43 × 40mm) weighing 206.45 g was found in the Sayh al Uhaymirregion of Oman. Finders, mineralogy and classification: E.

Gnos, B. A. Hofmann, and A. Al-Kathiri (UniBern): darkbrown fusion crust is only locally preserved. The impact meltbreccia (87 vol% of the stone, based on 8 X-ray tomographicsections) contains 25–40 vol% of strongly shocked igneousrocks and crystal clasts (up to 17 mm) derived from norites,evolved magmatites, and granulites set in a fine-grained (<0.1mm) crystalline matrix. Most crystal fragments are shockedplagioclases, locally associated with enstatite. In addition toplagioclase metallic iron, spinel, olivine, and orthopyroxeneclasts are present. The fine-grained impact melt matrixconsists mainly of short prismatic low-Ca pyroxene (En61–64,Wo2–4), interstitial plagioclase (An75–81) intergrown withpotassium feldspar. The remaining minerals are poikiliticilmenite, whitlockite, olivine (Fo58–59), zircon, and traces oftroilite, kamacite and tridymite. The regolith (13 vol%)present one one side of the meteorite comprises crystallineand glassy volcanic rocks, igneous lithic fragments, brecciafragments, fragments of mafic granulites, and crystalfragments. The impact melt breccia contains 32 ppm Th and8.5 ppm U, 0.47% K (K/U = 553), indicating a lunar origin.This is further confirmed by fusion-crust Fe/Mn of 75.1(microprobe, n = 14) and impact melt bulk Fe/Mn of 79.Oxygen isotope composition (I. A. Franchi, OU) are alsoconsistent with a lunar origin (∆17O = 0.001 ± 0.032‰). Thisimpact melt breccia is the most strongly KREEP-erichedlithology among all known lunar rocks. Weathering: W1 (Femetal shows only little oxidation). Specimens: All in NMB.

Souslovo 55°25.770′N, 55°47.236′EBashkortostan, RussiaFound 1997 JulyOrdinary chondrite (L4)

In late July 1997, Ismagil Gaysin and his son Radik wereloading hay on to a cart near Souslovo village, 10 km N ofBirsk town. The cart was not safe on the sloping track, and thefather asked his son to find a stone to secure the wheel. Radikfound a stone buried in soil in the nearest ditch. When thework was finished, they decided to bring the stone homebecause it had an unusual color and shape. Later, they thoughtthat the stone (weighing 19.3 kg) could be a meteorite, and in2002 sent a piece to the Vernadsky Institute, Moscow foridentification. In 1966 March 30, 15:45 UT, a bright fireballwas observed in the region and it could be that the meteoritefind might be related to the fireball. Classification andmineralogy (S.

Tanezrouft 057 25°16′N, 0°09′EAlgeriaFound 2002 December 23Carbonaceous chondrite (C4)

A large (5.4 kg), dark grey, moderately compact stone,lacking fusion crust was found by F. Beroud and C. Boucher.Mineralogy and classification (B. Devouard and J.-L.Devidal, UBP; B. Zanda and M. Denise, MNHNP): largechondrules (around 1mm in diameter), matrix around 50% butlocally more abundant (~70%), numerous irregular whitishinclusions up to 3 mm, and occasional zoned CAIs up to

17 mm. In addition, several large (up to 2.5 cm) dark greyinclusions show a finer grained petrology, with no (orextremely rare) chondrules or CAIs. More of these fine-grained inclusions are visible at the surface of the handsample. The meteorite is nearly equilibrated: olivines arearound Fa30 ± 4 except for a few unequilibrated chondrules;OPX range from Fs3 to Fs30, with a mean at Fs19. Thegroundmass is highly recrystallized, with homogeneousolivine, orthopyroxene and plagioclase grains around 100 µmin size. The groundmass is texturally equilibrated, althoughmost grains seem to be porous. Magnetite is the dominantopaque mineral, associated with minor FeS, Ni-richmonsulfide, minor pentlandite and possibly pyrite. Outsidechondrules, small magnetite grains and minute sulfide grainsare scatterred within the matrix. No metal was observed.However, iron hydroxides patches are visible, and metal orsulfides may be have been obliterated by terrestrialweathering. The numerous irregular inclusions retain a fine-grained texture made of plagioclase and clinopyroxene thatmay be metamorphosed CAIs. The overall characteristics ofthis meteorite are consistant with a C4 classification, withaffinities to the CV oxidized subgroup and/or the CK group.Specimens: type specimen, 110 g, MNHNP; main mass withfinders.
