Dear John and all;

Mohamed...question...does it attract to a strong magnet? If so, probably the black is magnetite.
No, this rock in particular is not magnetic at all. I have another suspected lunar breccia (http://www.alifyaa.com/meteorite/ln3/) where the bulk is very little magnetic but not the clasts.

has any analysis been done on this rock?
No not yet, but I am sendong out samples for testing.

I thank all those who replied, this seem the first find that gave me some hope, let us wait and see the results of tests.

Sincerely

Mohamed H. Yousef

Mohamed and Matteo,

It looks igneous to me...quartz or pyroxene crystals being the main mineral.
Black mineral maybe magnetite...or a amphibole or a mica.

Mohamed...question...does it attract to a strong magnet? If so, probably the
black is magnetite.

Regards,

John
