Joe, If you look closely at the first stone, you can see what appears to be some lighter areas, those could be the white clasts...

Eric

To me the piece that terry's soons were photographed with looks different than 
the hammer stone. Is it possible that the person who sold it to him pulled one 
over on him? Or is it just the photo that makes it look different?

"...UW-Madison meteorite experts Noriko Kita and Takayuki Ushikubo used
a scanning electron microscope and X-ray spectrometer to begin to
analyze the surface mineral composition of the rock. They identified the
presence of magnesium, iron, and silica-containing compounds, including
the common minerals olivine and pyroxene. They also found iron-nickel
metal and iron sulfide, which are often seen in primitive meteorites...."
