It appears to be covered (and, I would assume, filled) with large chondrules. It had a broken, mostly flat "tip" with weathering that I sanded a bit, but I don't think I managed to get through the weathered material (I don't THINK the matrix is that yellow color). This is one that I'd love to see the inside of. http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/interesting_nwa.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/interesting_nwa_chondrules.jpg http://webpages.charter.net/garrison6328/interesting_nwa_end.jpg ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [email protected] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
