Hello everyone,
I recently cut a little NWA and am interested in any opinions on some things 
I found in it.  This is my first attempt at taking pictures through my 
rather inexpensive microscope but hopefully you'll get the idea.

Does this look like one of those bleached chondrules that Jeff Kuyken has 
mentioned?

Is this some sort or chondrule congolmeration?  I seem to see a barred 
section enclosed by another type?

This chondrule doesn't have much definition except for a slight "armor" but 
looks like it has some sort of metallic inclusion.  Is that what it looks 
like to anyone else?  How would this form?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Phil
