NWA 4590 Meteorite Thin Section
Classified as an angrite, NWA 4590 provides a unique sample from the parent body. Analysis of its textural and mineralogical features shows it to be “sub-volcanic”; rather than the more common plutonic or basaltic angrite. Detailed information can be found at Meteorite Studies.

Bondoc Meteorite Thin Section
The Bondoc meteorite was a large and incredibly impressive recovery by Harvey Nininger from the island of Luzon, Philippines. This mesosiderite is displayed here as a thin section in cross polarized, 1/4 wave retarded light. The visuals are interesting, with black metal filaments stretching across the entire slide.
