Thank you Bernd, as always, a superb thin section. As I said however, it's 
the vesicles that I would prize as it's a rather rare commodity for know 
"ites"
Having "fallen for" some terrestrial lavas before groping my way to the 
List, I'd much appreciate a fully recognizible magma "bubbles and all" 
meteorite as demonstrated in Ibitera.
