Sample No.: EET92014; 92015

Location: Elephant Moraine

Dimensions (cm): 1.6 x 1.0 x 0.5; 1.7 x 1.0 x 1.1

Weight (g): 2.1; 4.1

Meteorite Type: Howardite

Macroscopic Description: Cecilia Satterwhite

At least half of the exterior surfaces are covered with shiny fusion crust. Areas without fusion crust are light to medium gray in color with light and dark clasts visible. One black, glassy clast visible on the exterior of 92014 is 0.7 in length and penetrates the interior. The interior matrices are light gray with abundant small white, yellow, and black clasts. Minor oxidation was noted.

Thin Section (EET92014,4 and ,5: 92015,2) Description: Brian Mason

The major part of both sections of EET92014 consists of a breccia of pyroxene and plagioclase clasts up to 3 mm across, in a comminuted groundmass of these minerals. Section 92014,5 contains an enclave of dark glass with skeletal pyroxene crystals, 5 mm in greatest dimension; a similar but smaller enclave is present in 92014,4. The section of 92015 is essentially identical with those of EET92014, except for the absence of dark glassy enclaves; the meteorites are probably paired. Microprobe analyses show pyroxene compositions ranging from Wo2Fs20 to Wo28Fs44 in both the typical and dark glassy areas; the largest clasts are the most Mg-rich. Plagioclase compositions range from An82 to An92. The dark glass has somewhat variable composition, but approximates to the overall bulk composition of the meteorite; the enclaves are therefore interpreted as probably shock-melted areas. The meteorite is a howardite.
