Preliminary classification findings determined it to be a new Rumuruti type 3 chondrite with two types of sulfide,low metal and brecciated. Final probing results to be posted later.The total weight less than 70 grams.i will post some better pictures in a few days.This should turn out to be the first R chondrite found in the USA, and 68th worldwide.
