Thanks all who responded.
Looks like plain old white vinegar is the thing to try. I think I'll hold off
on the heating for now, but thanks Steve for what to do next if the basic
suggestion doesn't work.

I picked up a few thin sections in one of the rooms here in Tucson yesterday.
These are my first.
I am considering a few of my options, but I was wondering if anyone could
suggest a budget-priced beginner's microscope. To complicate things a bit, I
want to be able to view the sample while I
Hello Tucson attendees,
Has anybody seen any Cat Mountain for sale? Or any other unusual Arizona
meteorites (Bagdad, Fish Canyon, etc.)?? I haven't been getting around as much
as I hoped... I hope you're all enjoying the show (or enjoying the coverage
for those who cannot visit this year).
Mikon at the Executive Inn has some specimen scopes (I don't think they're for
slides, but they may have both types). I'm not sure of the quality, but it
could be a good deal for the price. Is anyone familiar with their scopes? I
believe they're Russian microscopes.
Good luck!

Hi Eric,
I'll bet that is paired to a stone I had classified years ago (NWA 2732). I
think it was an L5 from memory butI believe there have been several numbers

Hello Jeff, Matthias, Ted, all,
Your wise suggestions about the blue inclusion are highly appreciated.
I also first thought of hibonite that was mentioned in a similar
discussion we had on the list a couple of years ago. At the time, Jeff
Kuyken showed us a chondrule-like inclusion in
CAIs can be quite round. The famous Blue Angel CAI was a fairly
round, mm-size object in another CM chondrite, Murchison (this
publication was in 1982-ish in GCA). Not all hibonite in meteoritic
CAIs is the same color. The blue comes from Ti3+, formed under reducing
conditions. The blue
Hi Zelimir all,
It was quite a few years ago now but at the time I think there were a few
scientists who took a look at my pics and they all had a similar and
independent opinion of Hibonite. I would tend to go with the Hibonite
theory too. These have all been found in meteorites with CAI's
