I'd love to see a photo also, but I live in Philadelphia so I won't be seeing this in person. :-)

That aside,
I'm assuming from your post that this is a "chondrite" native to the USA, and not just another NWA.
?
I have about 25 NWA's undergoing classification now, and I have more I'd like to get classified but it is indeed hard to find a lab that will work on NWAs that look like obvious OCs. ?I think that is a mistake on their part, because there are so many unique things to be found in meteorites. ?
In my opinion, many labs would think differently about a "native" US chondrite, than an NWA chondrite. ?I do not think you will have trouble finding a home for it if it is a USA find. ?
?
Cheers,
John

I am in contact with a Las Vegas resident who has, by all appearances fair-sized, fresh chondrite. If you are willing and able to inspect in person and get her stone into the system, please send me your contact information for forwarding. Pics on request.

Regards,
Elton
