| Thin Section
(,4) Description - Tim McCoy and Linda Welzenbach |
| The sections are so similar that a single description suffices. The sections exhibit large chondrules (up to 3 mm) and CAIs in a dark matrix. Olivines range from Fa0-9 and low-Ca pyroxene is Fs1-2. The meteorites are unequilibrated carbonaceous chondrites, probably CV3. |
