Location: Al Wusta, Oman
Classification: Achondrite, Ungrouped
Witnessed Fall: No

Remarks:
Dr. Tony Irving's work is not yet complete on this fascinating meteorite, which is an unusual hematite-bearing, eucrite-like mafic achondrite with ferrian pyroxenes. Irving's submission (with others) at the 42nd Lunar and Planetary Science Conference is a fascinating read. It will be interesting to watch this story unfold as further analyses are conducted.
