confirmed as Martian, but have not yet been approved by the
Meteoritical Society Note: See top of table for
Petrologic Color Key
§§The number of terrestrially-unpaired
meteorites stated here is a best estimate based on available
information and is subject to change. It is very
difficult to properly assess the pairing relationships among
the most common
Enriched Mafic Shergottites,
so the actual number of unpaired specimens may be slightly
lower than stated. Note: If the 52
independently-classified specimens grouped with Northwest
Africa 12262 are indeed dispersed subsamples of a single
ancient fall exceeding 30 kilograms in total weight, it
would collectively represent the largest known Martian
meteorite. The largest single intact Martian
meteorites are the ~18 kilogram Zagami fine-intergranular
shergottite and the 14.5 kilogram Taoudenni 002
olivine-gabbroic shergottite. |
