NWA 2798 L3.2 Chondrite Meteorite
NWA 2798 is a chondrule-packed L3.2 meteorite that I purchased in Morocco in 2005. There were a total of 13 stones making up a combined Total Known Weight of 1805 grams. It has a Shock Level of 2 and a Weathering Grade of 1. There are many 'armoured' chondrules that are visible on every cut surface!
In some of the slices are what appear to be either black achondritic inclusions or melt pockets. I sent two of the largest stones to a professional to cut on a wire saw to provide the best possible thin slices that took a nice polish and provide a generous surface-to-weight ratio!
