[meteorite-list] What is it? NWAxxx???

2011-02-19 Thread Jim Wooddell
Hi all! This was in the pile of NWA space rocks I bought at Tucson. It is much darker in color, with less free metal and few chondrules. Any idea as to what it might be? http://desertsunburn.no-ip.org/4sale/unwa4gC.jpg http://desertsunburn.no-ip.org/4sale/unwa4gB.jpg Thanks for any input! Jim

The darkness could be impact melt or close to it (High shock). Must be an OC with the large chondrule showing. I have a slice of NWA4588 which is an L5-S5 with a matrix that looks bang on to yours. Cheers! tett Owen Sound, Ontario On 19/02/2011 6:51 PM, Jim Wooddell wrote: Hi all! This
