Hi all,

I own a 4.1g full slice of SAH00225
It did a high polish on it and etched the big metal veins.

Have a look at

http://www.austromet.com/Sah00225_4.1g.jpg

to see how SAH00225 looks like.

best wishes,

Christian

Hi Dean,
Thank you to explain?our error number on this meteorite. The Sahara 00225 is
a very interesting E6 with one?large metal vein crosscuting the stone. We
are sold out and keep as usual about half of the mass in our collection. A
close photo of the matrix with the metal vein is on our web page at

Meteoriticaly,
