I have aquired a (small) piece of this metal-rich diogenite. It's a
beautiful meteorite for sure, and - due to its rarity so far - well
worth these 30$/g, IMHO.

John,

According to the scientists at NAU (Wittke, Bunch), this is a metal-rich
diogenite and not a meso. Check out their nice website:

http://jan.ucc.nau.edu/~wittke/Microprobe/Probe.html

Click on "NAU Meteorite Classifications" and then on the diogenite
section and scroll to the bottom to read the official classification. My
website also has some information on this unique diogenite.

David
