Hi Bernd

I think "806" is similar but maybe a bit too orange. This stone is orange, but a bit on the pale side.

Average chondrules size is about 1mm and the largest ones are 2 to 3 times larger. Magnetic attraction is very similar to the half kilo NWA 869 I picked up at Blood's auction this year.
