Hi all, it is picritic olivine-basalt found in Margi, Troodos on the isle Zyprus.
pictures number 01 and 03 show the rough side, pictures 02 and 04 show cut and polished face. Yes, it may be a good Pallasitewrong, looking like the Al Mahbas Pallasite. the nearest guess: Fukang - Andi Gren oh... no... THAT was the funniest guess (I laughed a lot because Andi only wrote this one word in his reply). So here the nearest guesses: porphyric (alkali)olivinebasalt or a olivinecumulate - Ingo Herkstroeter peridotite. I cant see from the picture if it's lherzolite or harzburgite (olivine with clino or orthopyroxene) but it realy looks like an olivine bomb - Andrei Razvan looks similuar to some of my olivine basalts, periodotite _ Dave Freeman volcanic olivine bomb - Ken Regelman material its similar to the vulcanic bombs - Matteo Chinellato Xenoliths imbedded in an igneous rock (perodite) - Adam Hupe Thanks for taking part on the quiz. This was just for fun and I hope nobody feels annoyed. I thought it was time for a little break in the Pallasite discussion.
