[meteorite-list] Re: Vugs in Chondrite meteorites

[Jerry A. Baird]

Hi List

I am seeking information on why one would discovered very small crystals in 
a chondrite vug. I have photos posted at the below web site of the two 
different crystals discovered in a core sample taken from the 75  pound 
meteorite discovered recently near Lake Havasu City, Arizona. The vugs were 
discovered in the broken end of the core sample -3 inch core 1 and 3/8 
inched wide. The meteorite is a chondrite and most likely a H-5 or L-6. 
There is a photo posted of a section of polished core about 1½ inches into 
the meteorite. In this photo you can see chondrules and iron and nickel 
pieces.
Thank for your input.
Jerry
