Hi Phil, Tom and all,
I have a fairly large slice that shows two distinct, small bright iron
flakes in the pale, blue portion. This pale area is completely
surrounded by the brown phase, which doesn't show obvious iron.

Phil, List,
I put a couple slides of this material under the 'scope and found only very
small bits of metal in the blue lithology - and then, only in brownish areas
of it. (Yeah, but the slice is from a distinctly blue sample.) The brown
lithology had small, but naked eye size blebs of metal.
Good morning/evening, List, (depending what side of the planet you're on)
Here's a decent solar system chart I came across, for anyone interested:

Hi John,
Great photos! They prompted me to look over my slice again. The two
shiny metal blebs in the grey-blue lithology measure 3/4-1mm across.
They are very distinct. Closer to the boundary between grey-blue and
brown, there are a couple others but they're not as reflective and
appear altered.
Such a unique specimen. Never say never, voila, vesicles CAN be present in
meteorites. In this case mega ones! Thanks Jeff and Mike.

Majority of them don't really understand the concept of a asteroid being

Probably because the typical meteorite dealer doesn't like having his head cut
off by the Chinese government.
Maybe they're to busy on the Gobi and there abouts, digging up Dinosaur
fossils!
Maybe you and I should get some financing to get the natives to recognize
and search for meteorites!!
10-15 years from now they too will be search out!
Don't forget the Kalahari. It's perkin right now!!
