Hi Jeff, Marcin and List,
Yes, that is a beautiful meteorite. I must have missed the first

Lately, I have seen some wonderful diogenites that are far different

Hi Gary and List,
That is a gorgeous rumuruti stone. Classification might still be
pending, but there is little doubt what that stone is by looking at
the matrix.
I can't wait to see what else you have in the pipeline. :)
