Hi list,

I recently acquired a 31g piece of NWA 353, and I was thinking that this
piece might be an impact-melt breccia similar to the L5 Rio Limay, Argentina
on pg 98 of the The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Meteorites Fig. 5.18. I think
my meteorite is similar because it has 2 distinct fields, in the picture, one
with chondrules(lighter area) and the other area lacking chondritic
texture(dark area). Any feedback, negative or positive, on my meteorite would
be greately appreciated.

The photo is located at:

Thanks,
