Thank you Dirk.
 
And if I may add to your Ad; 
If you would like to have a close-up look at that rare and unusual  
meteorite, I do have a couple thin-sections, expertly made, and with large  viewing 
area. Here is what a very knowledgeable collector had to say about  it:
         The samples are  roughly oval, 12mm wide and 17mm long.  They are 
top quality, made by the  best in the business.   It is virtually all olivine.  
The lace of  fine fractures is filled with metal, sulfides and other opaques.  
Some  fractures contain mineral grains that show well and in bright contrast 
when the  rest of the specimen is put into optical extinction.

And here is a picture to convince you:  _http://www.impactika.com/dunite.jpg_

More pictures upon request.
But I only have a couple thin-sections available!
