Hi Al and List

At the moment, my favorite ordinary chondrite is a
newly acquired 250 gram complete slice of Bluff (b)
which is sitting on my desk awaiting final polishing.
If anyone has never seen Bluff (b) it
has an unusual grey/green matrix and this slice will
be gorgeous when I am finished with it!
