Re: [meteorite-list] Awesome Large inclusion in Bondoc Meteorite
Wow, that is pretty darn cool. Have you ever sliced any Bondoc? I know a lot of it is shale or has a crumbly texture, but would a larger piece like this have an unoxidized core? And if it has an inclusion like that visible on the outer surface, it might have something interesting hiding on the inside. :) -- - Web - http://www.galactic-stone.com Facebook - http://www.facebook.com/galacticstone Twitter - http://twitter.com/GalacticStone Pinterest - http://pinterest.com/galacticstone RSS - http://www.galactic-stone.com/rss/126516 - On 10/5/12, Ruben Garcia mrmeteor...@gmail.com wrote: Wow, check out this huge pyroxene cluster in this Bondoc meteorite. http://www.ebay.com/itm/2625-gram-BONDOC-METEORITE-Acquired-by-Nininger-in-1962-FANTASTIC-INCLUSION-/221135221422?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0hash=item337cafb2ae All items http://www.ebay.com/sch/mr-meteorite/m.html?item=221135221422ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:ITrt=nc_trksid=p2047675.l2562 -- Rock On!

Re: [meteorite-list] Awesome Large inclusion in Bondoc Meteorite
Hi, It feels like this specimen has a large iron nodule inside because of the weight and solid nature of this piece. I see lots of pyroxene on the exterior but the center is highly attracted to a magnet. Pretty cool really!

Re: [meteorite-list] Awesome Large inclusion in Bondoc Meteorite
Mike, I bought some of this Bondoc and do have slices available for sale. Super fresh metal, lots of olivines super nice material. I won't have photos for a couple of weeks, but anyone interested can email me.

Nice piece. Looks a little like a volcanic bomb.
