[meteorite-list] nwa 1685
After looking at my 198 gram individual,and seeing what looks like a upwards bubbly chondrule,mole like and 8 mm across.To me it would seem like a chondrule that was exploding outward than stopped just before it could break the surface thus keeping the beautiful crust intact.Also of all the pieces I have seen or had,I have only had 3 pieces,all the fusion crust is BLACK AND VERY GLOSSY.It has just a unique shine not like most other nwa's.I can hardly wait to get my new 112 gram completely intact specimen.Also of all the whole piece's I have seen,most of them have superb thumbprinting.I hope we can keep this thread going all day.It's even better when bernd gets involved.Also you can see my new coming piece on my homepage. steve arnold,chicago Steve R.Arnold,chicago,Ill,Usa!!

[meteorite-list] NWA 1685 or Dean's BL
Hello Dean, BL-owners and List, Today I took some digital pictures of several of my thin sections under crossed polarized light. Among these, my NWA 1685 thin section which I purchased from Dean a few days ago and I am glad I did. He had another one on EBay but I've just bought it with "Buy It Now" :-) The BL's have already been the subject of much debate and whatever they will finally be classified as, they are beautiful, they are extraordinary. There are now two gorgeous, cut specimens in my collection: 131 grams and 251.3 grams with fantastic fusion crust and regmaglypts - plus these two thin sections. Here is what I found in the BL thin section thaI I already own: Both in hand specimen as in thin section there are areas that are absolutely featureless, devoid of any chondrules or other inclusions, and look almost achondritic. The view under crossed polars is breathtaking: While there are chondrules and mineral components of various sizes in a fine-grained, almost opaque groundmass, the featureless clast in my TS shows an incredible, equigranular structure without any fine-grained, interstitial groundmass ... as if it had been "blown" or "swept" away. Never before have I seen this in any other thin section that I have or that I have seen pictured in the literature. Imagine hundreds and hundreds of colorful little pearls seen from a distance.

It is brecciated, inclusion-rich, and clast-rich. Some clasts are so featureless that I decided to buy two NWA 1685 thin sections from Dean when he had them on EBay and find out what these looked like under the microscope. TS#1 almost knocked my socks off and made me doubt if that could be an LL5 or an LL6. These areas look almost achondritic, not a trace of something chondrule-like. The term "metachondrite" had not been born yet at that time, but that's what the featureless portions of this beauty look like: Thousands of tiny, colorful crystals evenly distributed, and, as I said before, not the slightest hint of a chondrule or relict chondrules in these parts of the matrix.
