Good evening Dean, and Folks,

My first impression was that the "specimen" was a spectacular piece of
pre-historic peanut brittle.
 
Then, the big let down when the after-cutting photo showed it to be nothing
more than lunar-oxidized platinum.

Well, Dean--You almost had a keeper! Better luck next time, old friend. :-)

Best regards to all,

I got a little excited about this a short while ago
(until I cut it).
Only weights 30 grams. Hard to believe that is not
crust.
