[meteorite-list] Odd meteorite

[Gerald Flaherty]

Hey Darren,
Some of those white areas are located in the middle of the slice.
Those on the edge would be susciptable to terrestrial weathering but unless 
the middle had been exposed to the same conditions you'll maybe have to look 
for another cause.
