and: "The stone consists of cm-sized dark L4 clasts (Fa 25.58+0.53, Fs 22.2+0.31) in LL6 (Fa 31.53±0.64, Fs 26.54+0.44) material." Thanks Rob! A database query (personal database) of LL6 Açfer stones yields one LL6 Açfer stone that has similar Fa and Fs values and that is Açfer 030. The values are strikingly similar: Fa31.7, Fs26.5. Moreover, your stone looks pretty weathered in some matrix areas, ... this would fit the Açfer 030 description as an S3; W4. Açfer 030 is also brecciated and its metal is described as "oxidized", which implies a cut surface should have brownish oxidation stains. Maybe these stones are paired?!?
