HI ALL!
Some days ago a friend of mine show me a stange meteorite, it weights 1640g
and it measures about 15x8x8cm.
We cut a small corner but we cannot understand what it could be, so a couple
of days ago He cut it in half and send me a picture for ask me what I think
about.
Is very very low magnetic but on the surface there are some tiny spots of
metal, I haven't see any chondrules.

For first I think it looks like and LL6 like HaH183:
