Northwest Africa 13489: A Strongly Metamorphosed Ungrouped Carbonaceous Chondrite

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract NWA 13489 is a meteorite that has been classified as a brachinite. Brachinites are olivine‐rich primitive achondrites representing residual products after a variable degree of silicate melt extraction on a barely differentiated, noncarbonaceous asteroid.

Documenting microbial populations within the University of Alberta Meteorite Curation Facility using 16S rRNA gene sequencing: Implications for the curation of astromaterials

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Meteorites are easily contaminated at the Earth's surface by microbial activity. Here, DNA extracts from two meteorite specimens and samples from curation laboratory surfaces are analyzed with amplicon sequencing, to understand microbial communities that contaminate meteorites and that may be resident in curation facilities.

An atlas of apatite and merrillite in martian meteorites: REE Geochemistry and a new tool for shergottite classification

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract The phosphates, apatite and merrillite, are accessory phases in all martian meteorites. Although apatite is commonly used to assess volatile content and speciation in martian meteorites, merrillite is at least twice as abundant in most samples, but poorly understood. Given that shergottites are divided into enriched, intermediate, and depleted

Asuka 12236 more primitive than Paris: Clues given by their Infrared and Raman micro‐spectroscopy signatures

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Carbonaceous chondrites are meteorites originating from undifferentiated objects of the Solar System, which may retain signatures of primitive matter. Here, we present a comparative study between two CM chondrites Asuka 12236 and Paris, both considered among the most primitive in the carbonaceous chondrite meteorite collection.
