Beautiful slice. And, an excellent picture.
My vote is also graphite.
Cheers!

Wang,
Very nice specimen. Wish it was in my cabinet. In your first message you had
the descriptions of the inclusions correct.

Hi Yinan,
The dark inclusions could be graphite. Troilite often has a "brassy"
coloration to it.
Do you have a photo of the slice?
Best regards,

Hi everyone, simple question:
In an iron meteorite, when etched, what do the troilite and
schreibersite inclusions look like?
I have a slice of canyon diablo and I'm seeing dark round nodules (the
troilite) and silvery dendritic material (schreibersite?). Which is
which?
Thanks,
Yinan
