I recently donated two pieces of Allende to the Natural History
Museum in Vienna: One had a featureless dark inclusion looking
similar to the one seen in Rob's NWA 3118 slice featured in the
2004 December 1 Rocks from Space Picture of the Day, and the
other one had a inclusion looking silmilar to
Thanks for the answers to my cbn blade questions.
I use diamond blades for Chondrites and Achondrites and I think the result
is ok.(there is a German seller called Homberg und Brusius who is selling
diamond blades 0,2 mm thick)

what is this seller name ? Or how to search diamond blades in
Wouldn't mind the spare change for this one! Would be interesting to know if
this big beauty has any silicate material. Looks oriented too!

I have experimented using this type of wire saw. I used Gibeon and

is variation in the resistance of the meteorite causing the wire to
