Dear List,

Please have a look at my new chondrule-stuffed type 3.

NWA 5730 (TKW 1560g; 8 specimens) has been provisionally classified L3.2
S2, W1, by Ray Pickard of Bathurst Observatory Research Facility, NSW
Australia.

Ray kindly offered me the following, to quote:
"This meteorite is perhaps the most beautiful and interesting meteorite I've
ever had the privilege of studying".

Available slices, an end cut and a few crusted fragments can be found at:

Enjoy!

Best regards,
Rob Lenssen
