Hey Roman & all,
I agree in that it could be an R, but what I've come
to learn is that appearance can be very deceiving. Take a look at this
image which is a classified meteorite and is a little similar in appearance.
Have some guesses at which meteorite and what the classification is and I'll
post the answer tomorrow.
Cheers,

Roman,
What is the paramagnetic response to a strong
magnet? If next to nothing then
it is a good chance of being an R (or
LL)...if a little stronger then EL(or
L), if noticebly strong then EH (or
H).
The feerless guesser,
John
