It has a barred structure like basalt - looks achondritic - is it ?

For heaven's sake, this d o e s look like eucritic
plagioclase laths / needles! Whadda meteorite !!!

I will have to take close-up pics of my mottled gray inclusions - next weekend
maybe, ... no that's my daughter's 36th birthday, ... boy, I am growing old and
older :-(  ...  ;-)

Anyway, Bob King sent me an email with one of his favorite NWA 869 pieces
and wrote: "One I received from Dean has a perfect little patch of what has
to be L3 chondrules". When I saw those perfect chondrules, they almost knocked
