Hi List, I recently imaged a thin section of Mount Tazerait L5. I found it
fell Aug 21 1991 in Niger but I haven't seen any for sale (since I started
looking which was just recently). Is this a hard one to find?

In the thin section was a large inclusion. I have many cool micrographs of
it on the March Meteorite Times issue (Open the magazine and click on Micro
Visions).

This inclusion was different from what I am used to seeing and reminded me
of some Earth like volcanic structures. I won't start tossing descriptive
names around because I might be way off.

Any of you with the time and inclination, please share your thoughts of what
this stuff reminds you of.

And if any one knows of Mount T for sale, please let me know.

Thanks, Tom Phillips
