Fusion crust is black with crack and light colored spots less than 1 mm. Possible exposed interior is black with light colored inclusions. Interior is dark gray to black with light colored spots less than 1 mm. Large fracture though the middle with weathered interior along the fracture. |
The sections consist of abundant small (up to 1 mm) chondrules, chondrule fragments and mineral grains in a dark matrix. Metal and sulfide occur within and rimming the chondrules. Olivine ranges in composition from Fa1-45. Three pyroxene analyses range from Fs1-7. The meteorites are CO3 chondrites. |
