Good Evening List Members,

   I recently received a very nice metal rich (including veins) 20.86g part
slice of PV. I was amazed at how much Trolite is evident in the specimen. In
looking at it with a 10x Loupe, I noticed some dark blue colored material
which appeared crystalline in nature. Is this "discolored" Trolite?

  What a wonderful rock from space.

Warmest Regards,
Greg Redfern
