I would be a bit cautious about calling something an IMB unless it has been
formally classified as such. My understanding is that this meteorite was
classified as H5 but after further cutting later was found to be highly
shocked. Let's not forget that IMB is basically a scientific term referring
to the fact that the pressure reached about 75-90 GPa and is rated as S6+.
It's original shock rating was only S2. A new piece should probably be
submitted for re-classification so a proper determination can be made.

Cheers,

Jeff

Dear List,
   Does anyone have more information about Capot Rey?
It is listed as an H5 in the MetBul and has no mention
of it being an IMB. I would appreciate photos if
someone has them of their samples that were not sold
as an IMB. Thank you in advance.
Sincerely, Dirk Ross...Tokyo
