Macroscopic Description: Cecilia Satterwhite
Exterior has brown/black dull fusion crust with rust and fractures. The interior is a fine grained tan matrix with mm sized light, dark and weathered inclusions.

Thin Section (,2) Description: Tim McCoy
The section shows a groundmass of comminuted pyroxene and plagioclase (up to 0.5 mm) with fine- to coarse-grained basaltic clasts ranging up to 1 mm. Most of the pyroxene is orthopyroxene with compositions ranging from Fs_20-52Wo_1-4 and a single augite of Fs₂₂Wo₄₂. The Fe/Mn ratio of the pyroxene is ~30. Plagioclase is An₉₂Or_0.2.
