[meteorite-list] Chergach H5-IMB 2 Lithologies Photos

[Greg Hupe]

Dear List Members,

I just returned from Morocco and Western Sahara a couple days ago. Of the 
few meteorites worth getting, I did get a single 362-gram Chergach H5-IMB 
stone which I cut and polished yesterday - AMAZING!! Here are some links to 
photos which show a distinct, shocked vein dividing the two different 
lithologies of H5 and Impact Melt Breccia (IMB).

I also got two excellent complete stones with fantastic fusion crust, one 
with a 15mm gunblue metal blob with flowlines protruding from the black 
crust. These weigh between 400-500 grams each. I traded my large scale while 
in Morocco so I can not get the exact weights until later this week. Here 
are the photos of these two beauties:
