Ages of baddeleyite crystals in NWA 5298 indicate that shergottites are young. Clasts in Black Beauty impact melt breccia

  3. Shergottite Age Conundrum (From Borg et al., 2003, GCA, v. 67(18), p. 3519-3536.) Pb isotopic data indicate old ages for Martian meteorites, including shergottites. But internal isochrons suggest young ages for shergottites.
