> Hi Bernd, Matteo and All,

Hello Martin, Matteo, and List,

"if you look at the pic, the DI (?) appears just off of center"

Yep, that's one of these DIs!

"I don't see the parallel banding that Bernd
also mentions. Am I missing it, or is it absent."

I assume that it is only visible in BSE images, in backscattered
electron images. The first thing I'll do when I get my Vigarano
pieces from M.C. is, of course, put them under my microscope
to find out *if* I can detect any signs of that arcuate band texture.

BTW, scrolling down to the two larger Vigarano CAIs in Martin's
recent Accretion Desk article, you'll find another DI close to and
a little above the smaller CAI on the left.

Best DI regards,

Bernd
