John,

According to the scientists at NAU (Wittke, Bunch), this is a metal-rich
diogenite and not a meso. Check out their nice website:

Click on "NAU Meteorite Classifications" and then on the diogenite
section and scroll to the bottom to read the official classification. My
website also has some information on this unique diogenite.
