In previous Mossbauer spectral studies of many of the Shergotite Nakhlite Chassignite (SNC) meteorites, attention was drawn to the close similarities of spectrum profiles between Lafayette and Nakhla, which were once suggested to be identical meteorites. These observations led to the acquisition of Governador Valadares and another specimen of Nakhla, as well as Zagami and Shergotty, for Mossbauer spectral measurements at 4.2K. Results reported here demonstrate that there are subtle differences between the three nakhlites (Nakhla, Lafayette, and Governador Valadares), as there are for three of the shergottites (Shergotty, Zagami, EETA 79001/lithologies A and B) and olivine-dominated Chassigny and ALHA 77005, indicating that all eight of the SNC meteorites discovered to data fell independently to Earth.

Does Lafayette = Nakhla? Not necessarily so, based on 4.2K Mossbauer spectra of all of the SNC meteorites does not yet have a rating. At this time, there are no reviews or comments for this scientific paper.
If you have personal experience with Does Lafayette = Nakhla? Not necessarily so, based on 4.2K Mossbauer spectra of all of the SNC meteorites, we encourage you to share that experience with our LandOfFree.com community. Your opinion is very important and Does Lafayette = Nakhla? Not necessarily so, based on 4.2K Mossbauer spectra of all of the SNC meteorites will most certainly appreciate the feedback.
