Hi Melanie,
It's hard to say without seeing a pic of the inclusions but one of my
fragments does have 'red inclusions'. It is small specks of oxidised iron.

Subject: [meteorite-list] Red spots on Tatahouines?
I've noticed that some tatahouines appear to have small regions of red
that remind me of ruby inclusions.. Anyone know what they are or what they
could be? Has ruby corundum ever been found in meteorites?
Regards
