	SaU 169 Analytik
		Zur Verhinderung von Verunreinigung und Oxidation der Probe haben wir reinen Alkohol als Spül- und Kühlmittel verwendet.
		Der Meteorit besteht aus zwei sehr unterschiedlichen Gesteinen: Einer Brekzie mit Schmelze als Grundmasse (87% des Meteoriten) und einem angeschweissten Regolithen (Mondboden; 13% des Meteoriten).
		Die Analysen von Sau 169 liegen nahe zusammen auf der sogenannten Erde-Mond Fraktionierungslinie, was eindeutig beweist, dass unser Meteorit vom Mond stammt.

	Oman's lunar meteorite sparks exciting cosmic secrets (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Research centring on the Sayh al Uhaymir (SaU) 169, a fist-sized piece of rock which is believed to have been ejected from the lunar surface, is generating ripples of excitement among scientists.
		Al Kathiri, along with fellow geologists Dr Edwin Gnos and Dr Beda Hofmann of the University of Bern (Switzerland), came upon the meteorite in the Sayh al Uhaymir area of Oman’s Sharqiyah deserts on January 16, 2002.
		SaU 169 was one of an estimated 3,700 meteorites discovered during a series of joint field search campaigns undertaken between January 2001 and January 2003, says the Omani geologist.

	SaU 169 Bedeutung (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		SaU 169 ist ein einzigartiges Gestein, weil es extrem reich an KREEP-Elementen ist.
		Kleine Gesteinsbruchstücke (einige Milligramm schwer), der Apollo-Sammlung sind zwar chemisch ähnlich, aber erst SaU 169 ist von einer Grösse, die es zum ersten Mal ermöglicht hat, an einem derartigen Gestein komplette petrographische und chemische Analysen sowie verschiedene Altersdatierungen durchzuführen.
		Aber ohne all die Hintergrundsinformationen wäre es unmöglich gewesen, unsere Alter und chemischen Daten mit jenen von der Oberfläche des Mondes in einen direkten Zusammenhang zu bringen.

	Sau 169 Ueberblick
		Die chemische Zusammensetzung des Meteoriten SaU 169 ist einzigartig, weil er die radioaktiven Elemente Thorium und Uran in viel höheren Mengen als jedes andere Mondgestein enthält. Diese einmalige Zusammensetzung erlaubt es den Meteoriten direkt mit dem Imbrium Impaktkrater auf dem Mond in Verbindung zu bringen.
		Das Gestein kommt in einen Regolith weniger als einen halben Meter unter der Oberfläche des Mondes zu liegen.
		Vor weniger als 340'000 Jahren: Ein anderer Impakt trifft den Mond und schleudert SaU 169 bestehend aus Hauptgestein und zwei verschiedenen angeschweissten Regolithen ins All.

	SaU 169 Geschichte
		Thoriumreiches Material mit vergleichbaren Elementverhältnissen, wie wir sie für SaU 169 bestimmt haben, kommt nur in der Umgebung der beiden Krater Aristillus und Lalande vor.
		Nehmen wir unsere Altersdatierung zusätzlich als einschränkenden Faktor dazu, dann kommt nur noch die Lalande-Umgebung in Frage, da dieser ungefähr 2800 Millionen Jahre alt ist und ein anderer Krater in der Nähe auf etwa 200 Millionen Jahre Alter geschätzt wird.
		Durch die Reibung des vermutlich kantigen Gesteinsbrocken in der Erdatmosphäre wurde der äussere Teil des Gesteins kontinuierleich aufgeschmolzen und ging als Schmelztröpfchen verloren.

	PSRD:: SaU169 Lunar Meteorite
		ost of SaU 169 is a typical impact melt rock characterized by numerous unmelted fragments of minerals and rocks in a matrix of fine-grained igneous rock.
		SaU 169, however, gives messier results, a clear indication that the system has been disturbed by a reheating event after initial formation of the rock.
		More research will certainly be done on SaU 169 before its full story is told, and additional finds of lunar meteorites, remote sensing observations of the Moon, sample return missions, and eventually field work by humans and teleroperated robots will lead to a much fuller understanding of the Moon and its igneous and bombardment history.

		'''Sayh al Uhaymir 169''' (SaU 169) is a 206g Moon lunar meteorite found in the Oman Sultanate of Oman in January 2002.
		This stone is an impact event impact-melt breccia with exceedingly high concentrations of thorium and other ''incompatible'' elements; phosphorus, the rare earth elements, and the three most important naturally occurring radioactive elements, potassium, thorium, and uranium have been segregated in the liquid phase when the lunar minerals crytallisation crystallized.
		The impact that eventually sent this stone to the Earth is dated at 3.9 million years and could be the Mare Imbrium Imbrium impact.

		SaU 169 contains evidence of four meteoric events that melted, as well as dislodged, the rock while it was on the moon.
		By assuming that SaU 169 came from one of the most radioactive spots in gamma-ray maps, Gnos and his team were able to limit the origin of the meteorite to a few sites on the moon's surface.
		SaU 169 thus presumably spent a relatively short time in outer space before Earth's gravity pulled it in.
