Hi all,
the specimens that I put images of on my website that I obtained from Pareja 
Minerales do appear to be NWA 869.

This surprised me a bit as I had a specimen that I purchased as NWA 869 at 
the beggining of the year that was mainly a dark brown matrix with light 
grey and some yellowish chondrules in it. Is NWA 869 so different in it's 
lithologies and between individual specimens ??
