Hi Greg St. and List,
What does it look like under a microscope? If you can see cleavages at 90°
it's probably a (weathered) pyroxene (fragment), otherwise it might be a
fragment of an oxidized olivine crystal.
Fred Beroud's Açfer 336 (L3.8; S3; W3) has a few of these conspicuous
orange chondrule
List:
I recently acquired an unclass NWA and after cutting it, I not only found a
nice 5 mm chondrule but an odd orange brown inclusion. It almost looks like a
fossil shell - triangular in shape; I know it's not. It is also outlined with
black. Take a look.
