Hi Bernd & all,

Maybe it's possible but it's about 150X bigger than my Isheyevo 
Hibonite-bearing CAI or chondrule. Probably too big? Actually, I wish you 
could see this feature in person Bernd. The best way I can describe it is to 
say that is looks just like the iridescent blue colour of a Peacocks 
feather.

I was sent a pic off list by another collector who has a similar smaller 
feature on a very fresh NWA (~L3, W0/1). There is a brassy yellow one 
(troilite?) with a smaller blue one like mine next to it. Both look like 
melted metal on the surface. I know Mark had one other much larger Buzzard 
with a similar thing too. Has anyone else seen this or know what could cause 
it?

Cheers,

Jeff
