Bernd and others, It is hard to believe someone could confuse the BL (NWA 1685 or whatever) material with some other material. To me, the individuals with its' thick black crust, and beautiful shapes (some close to oriented) with many remaglypts are quite distinguishable. For those who own or have seen the BL material in person...they could probably pick a BL piece out a bunch of NWA's with ease.

The only drawback to this material is some of it internally oxidized in places, but otherwise it is one of the nicest stones I have.
