Hello Bernd, Moni, all

My class "L/LL5 breccia" for NWA 1685 was written on the label sticked onto 
the thin section upper glass, as received from Blaine Reed.
The TS "shape" and label text were very similar to those currently provided 
by David New.
Could this help identifying the origin of that class (type) ?

NB: I checked the Met. Bull.; no official class is given (yet).

Yours,

Zelimir
