Hi, My thoughts are that, that is NWA 074, (an H6 chondrite) I have seen a largish slice of that before and it is nearly identical! Very large amounts of uniform metallic iron just like that, and not many if any distinct chondrules (at least visually).

Foote Sent: 19 February 2007 15:42 To: [email protected] Subject: [meteorite-list] Mesosiderite Redux I want to thank all who offered input on my mystery specimen and whether or not it could be a mesosiderite. Some said the pic was too blurry to really see, so I took a good clear closeup. Here it is; http://www.meteorite-dealers.com/images/mesosiderite2.jpg Exterior shot isn't as clear but shows the general texture of the specimen; http://www.meteorite-dealers.com/images/mesosiderite4.jpg Don't mean to hammer this question to death but I am still interested in input with these clearer shots. For example, are the greyish blobs chondrules or not?
