TL;DR: The isotope systematics of the meteorite record four lunar impact events at 3909 ± 13 million years ago, ∼2800 Ma, ∼200 Ma, and <0.34 Ma, which can be linked to the collision with Earth sometime after 9.7 ± 1.3 thousand years ago.

Weathering of meteorites from Oman: Correlation of chemical and mineralogical weathering proxies with 14C terrestrial ages and the influence of soil chemistry
TL;DR: In this paper, the physical, chemical, and mineralogical effect of terrestrial weathering with 14C terrestrial ages was compared with 50 fragments of ordinary chondrites from 50 finds representing all searched areas in central Oman and all weathering stages.
