I know it is really nothing more than an L-5, ord. chondrite, but I think some of the features I have photographed are anything but '"ordinary" ! My opinion of course, but you gotta check it out. There are two features that are particularly interesting, first is a pyramid with a blemish in the center, of what I am guessing to be nickel/iron, since it is located in a vug that is inside of that sort of material. The other is a picture of a very colorful "fingerprint". You can go to Jeff's site at www.meteoritesaustralia.com Go to the meteorite 'space', the 2nd page of the "Atkins Team" Park Forest meteorite page, last few pics. Any of you out there that may be a bit more informed on these things may want to comment on the colorful "fingerprint" as well as the mechanics that are involved in making a pyramid shaped crystal of this size and shape in a meteorite.
