Each sample consists of different lithic clasts that altogether form four dominant textures and therefore appear to originate from closely related petrological areas within Vesta\u2032s crust. The textures range from subophitic to brecciated, porphyritic, and quench\u2010textured, that differ from section to section. Comparison with literature data for these samples is therefore difficult, which stresses that polymict eucrites are extremely complex in their petrography and investigation of only one thick section may not be representative for the host rock. We also show that sample Y\u2010793548 consists of more than one lithic unit and must therefore be classified as polymict instead of monomict. The variety and nature of lithic textures in the investigated Yamato meteorites indicate shock events, intense post\u2010magmatic thermal annealing, and secondary alteration. These postmagmatic features occur in different intensities, varying from clast to clast or among coexisting mineral fragments on a small, local scale. Several clasts within the eucrites studied have been modified by late\u2010stage alteration processes that caused deposition of Fe\u2010rich olivine and Fe enrichment along cracks crosscutting pyroxene crystals. However, formation of these secondary phases seems to be independent of the degree of thermal metamorphism observed within every type of clast, which would support a late\u2010stage metasomatism model for their formation.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christian Vollmer, Stella Rombeck, Julia Roszjar, Adam R.
