[meteorite-list] Fw: A very wierd meteorite. Any ideas what it is?

[Joe]

Hello everyone, 
  I would be interested in having a thin slice cut, but I would not be abot to do it with our hacking the meteorite up, I am also worried that if I try to cut it that the dark part may detach from the rest. Is there a goo probability of this happening. Would someone be able thdo it for me? I would be ablt to cut off a piece for testing, but I do not want to use my saw, the blade 1/8" thick, way too much waste. 
     Hi Fred, 
Have you seen any like this before? This was purchased from you on EBay. I have another one like it, but the dark part is much smaller, I was wondering if you had run into these before?

Thanks,
Joe Kerchner

Hello Joe,

 

It is really a nice one!

I would follow Marcin' s suggestion, and it is 
worth cutting another slice in  order to get a thin section 
studied.

Kind regards,

 

Frederic

  Hello evryone,

   I was wondering if anyone has ever 
  seen a meteorite like this? It seems to be like 25% Carbonacous and 75% 
  O.C..
I was thinking it may be duel lithogy, but have been told that the 
  black part is from a huge inclusion or chondrule and this is just a piece of a 
  larger one. These pieces weigh about 150+ grams total.
   The 
  dark part smells of sulfur and has a different crust on it then the rest of 
  the meteorite. Take a look and tell me what you think it may be. 
  Thanks.
