In my opinion, the contours are too pristine to be a Glorietta.  Glorietta has been buried a very long time, and this piece certainly doesn't look that way.  Taza is very characteristic in its external appearance...the soft ridges and curves...not what one sees on a Glorietta.  One could always be wrong but a quick etch of a small corner would tell the tale, but this seller needs to be aware of a potential mix-up here.  (I have small Glorietta individuals and it looks very different from a small Taza.)

Subject: [meteorite-list] Is this GM ?

Hi list !
 
Please have a look at
 
Is this Glorieta Mountain ? It looks like Taza for me.
 
I never saw a small individual of Glorieta Mountain, only slices.
 
So I am not sure about. Did anyone see small GM individuals ?
Do they look like that ?
 
Best wishes,
