I know this has been a debate that has ebbed and flowed across this list many times. I
want to point everyone to this fabulous picture of Thunda - a Queensland iron that
clearly shows a crust of differentiated iron surrounding a 'typical' iron core. This, in
my mind, is a stupendous example of an iron meteorite with a fantastic fusion crust.

My thanks to Bob Walker for bringing this to the public eye.
