Jeez, Melanie, Don't do anything to it. Keep it as it is..apparently it's very unusual. I would contact Dr. Rubin at UCLA and see if he wouldn't look at it if you were to send it to him with prepaid return postage and packaging. If I were qualified to classify meteorites I would be delighted to get my scope on this specimen.
