Carbonaceous chondrite NWA 1465 and eucrite NWA 4039 were investigated by confocal Raman microspectroscopy to identify the extraterrestrial minerals. Olivines, orthopyroxenes, clinopyroxenes, plagioclase, graphite, magnetite and troilite have been identified and characterized.
New NWA XXX ureilite found in 2006 was investigated by confocal Raman microspectroscopy to determine mineral composition of the meteorite. Olivines, orthopyroxenes, orthoclase, graphite and diamond have been identified and characterized.
Ordinary chondrite NWA 4047 was investigated by confocal Raman microspectroscopy to identify the extraterrestrial minerals. Olivines, orthopyroxenes, clinopyroxenes, plagioclase, graphite and diamond have been identified and characterized.
