My *guess* is that it is probably more stones of the Eucrite-IMB that has been floating around for the last couple of years or so which also tend to be small stones. There may be more than one type of Eucrite-IMB out there though. Maybe those who have had similar material classified could chime in but I would say it needs classification to be sure though.

Cheers,

Jeff

Marcin, list,
That is really a cool meteorite. I have a few questions if you don't mind?
What is the black portion? Is it Basalt or Impact melt material???
How do you classify a meteorite with two distinct lithologies like that?
It seems to me it should have broken apart and separated at that point where they connect. And if they had separated what would you call or classify the black portion as?
Is there any Scientific info or chemistry on this yet.
Thanks,
Carl
