Abstract
We present new spectroscopic observations of 17 putative basaltic asteroids, in the 0.3-2.5 micron spectral band, with the ESO/XShooter facility. The observed spectral range encompasses the two pyroxene bands centred at 0.9 and 2.0 micron, typical of the basaltic asteroids. The data allowed to taxonomically classify the observed asteroids, and in some cases to confirm their basaltic nature.
