The greenish tinge of the matrix and its fragile, crumbly matrix that doesn't take a polish at all definitely reminds me of Bilanga. And here is another bet: I BET I'll get a little piece for free from Rob if my guess should prove right because I was the first to recognize it as a diogenite :-) Best wishes, Bernd ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
