While the likelyhood of a Mercury Lander mission is very low, I was wondering if any planning/studies have been done on such a project?

Two or three years ago, there was some reporting on an odd meteorite that had distinctive isotope patterns and chemistry. There was some speculation it was Mercury ejecta, but that interpretation didn't seem strongly favored. I don't recall it's name/designation. I've heard no further discussion of it, and have wondered what the status on it is. Meteoritical Society meeting abstracts may have contained something but I haven't broused them extensively.
