Hello List,

The following pictures are of an unclassified NWA with what I am assuming is
a weathered armored chondrule. I have a lot of OC's with varying degrees of
weathering and chondrules poking through the desert varnish that are not
weathered like this one. I am wondering why this particular chondrule
weathered to a pinkish color.

Any ideas?
