As if they're not unusual enough anyway! ;-) Anyhow, when checking out a new piece of Isheyevo (CB3) under magnification, I found one of the WEIRDEST features yet!!! A BRIGHT TEAL-BLUE/GREEN inclusion. I don't just mean olivine green... I mean BRIGHT!!! Firstly; this is not an effect of photography nor from preparation. I have polished the surface from fine blade marks to fairly bright. I did not want to do it too much though in case I polish out the inclusion. It is quite small (no more than 2mm diameter) but that is not unusual given that all features in this meteorite are on a similar scale. Has anyone ever seen anything like this before or does anyone know what it might be? It really has me stumped!
