Hello all.
I want know Your opinion about something "strange" I just discover on my new Maroco
chondrite while cutting. Meteorite looks like fresh L5 chondrite and I have 1440g fragment
with around 50% fussion crust.

I just cut 50% this meteorite and find somethink, what looks like verry big chondrule.
This meteorite is not a breccia or something similar. This is clean L chondrite without
any inclusions.
This "chondrule" is visible on 4 slices and have dimmensions 28x25mm and have depth around
20 mm (before cut).

Meteorite is now in classification.

Here is some photos:
