No, it is carbonaceous. When you touch it, your hands come away with black powder. I have seen enough carbonaceous chondrites to recognize one. If it turns out to be something else, it would be one of the strangest meteorites on the planet. I think everyone who has seen a piece in person agrees

Yes, at first glance, it is similar to Saratov, with one major exception, it is carbonaceous, and it lacks the large chondrules that Saratov is known for. You can pick chondrules out of Saratov, this one has very few, and only tiny ones. I will post some classification data on this meteorite
