Abstract— The polymict eucrite Macibini is a fragmental breccia, predominantly composed of eucritic materials with minor proportions (maximum 2 vol%) of diogenitic material. Hence, it is intermediate between the Yamato‐74159‐type polymict eucrites, which contain negligible amounts of magnesian orthopyroxene, and the howardites. The present study provides mineralogical and bulk compositional data for the meteorite breccia and for six clasts. These clasts include both volcanic and igneous rocks and a variety of impact‐generated rocks. A broad range of degrees of postcrystallization metamorphism affected these materials before the final aggregation of the breccia.
