Bustee vs Aubres

Bustee is an aubrite meteorite that fell in northern India in 1852. Aubrites are rare, highly reduced achondrites composed predominantly of enstatite, with mineral chemistry indicating formation under conditions containing very little oxygen. As a documented nineteenth-century fall, Bustee provides researchers with material for investigating enstatite-rich parent bodies and the early differentiati...

Aubres is an aubrite meteorite that fell near Nyons in southeastern France in 1836. It gave its name to the aubrites, a class of enstatite-rich achondrites formed under unusually oxygen-poor conditions and distinguished by their pale, magnesium-rich silicate material. As the type specimen for the group, Aubres is a reference point for classifying meteorites associated with a highly reduced, differ...
