"Petrovich" deigns to joke:

"nice chondrule" is a nice understatement!

"It is CV3(not published yet) or at least it looks like that for me - NWA 2180"

A double-dented metachondrule (radiating pyroxene) probably 8-10 mm in
longest dimension - whadda CV3 ... leaves you breathless! How did this
chondrule survive intact amid all that early solar system turmoil and those
metamorphic processes ???

Gulp,

Bernd
