Greg's question about the huge vesicle prompted me to ask ya'll about
a stone I've been pondering.
I've received two of these small stones in separate unclassified NWA
batches from different sources. They are a rather odd grey color and
contain vesicles. I think I've seen some indistinct chondrules but
can't be sure. My best guess is a melt of some sort.
Here are links to photos of two halves of the same small stone

And here is a poor photo of the exterior:

Anyone one else noticed this material? Any one know anything about
it? Any speculation or observations?
Thanks and Regards,
Phil
