Hello all, and happy birthday Tett,

I have a photo of the 11g fragment of Juvinas in my collection posted in the
Gallery at the Meteorite Exchange. Here is the URL:

Juvinas has a greenish-gray color to it, and lots of interesting
inclusion-like debris in it. It also has the classic jet-black tar-like
fusion crust of a Ca-rich eucrite.

Cheers Tett.

Martin
