Hello List,

   This is a piece that I thought was considered duel lithogy, but I was told by a pretty relible person that the dark part is an inclusion, maybe even a chondrule, or a "DI" Dark Inclusion. The first link is to a photo of the main mass cut in half. The second link shows multiple photos of each half. This is a very interesting piece. The full stone was 163.8 grams. The dark part (chondrule,or incllusion,or different loithogy) covers about 40-45% of the stone.

The 2 halves.

Hi Marcin,

Good thread! NWA 2892 is a hard one to beat for Macrochondrules! This slice
has a 13.5mmx11mm chondrule.

And NWA 4040 has some very large pale ('bright') inclusions. This one is
38mmx28mm at widest points.

Cheers,

Jeff

So
If we are at this very interesting topic, maybe we make a little competition
?

Who have the biggest:
a) complete chondrule (Gujba rulez ?)
b) strange inclusion (exclude breccia fragments ofcourse)

ad
A) My chondrule You know, I have the mirror slice of this one from ebay.
size 9x9mm
B) Here is my slice that I show maybe one year ago. Its slice with the
biggest inclusion

Size 30x23mm, non chondritich inclusion. Cumulative inclusion ?
