Dear Jeff, Mark, & Bernd,
Thank you for addressing my free or low (or possibly stained) chondrule.
If I could please ask for one more thing... Could you point me in the direction of a reference that would also show a Fe stained chondrule?
Thanks again, Maria

Bernd added:
Maybe it is a porphyritic pyroxene chondrule where pyroxene crystals are surrounded by p i n k i s h Ca-free or low-Ca feldspathic glass as has been abundantly preserved in "PP" (porphyritic pyroxene) chondrules in the Korra Korrabes H3 chondrite. (Reference deleted)
