Hello McCartney.

Wow! Sincere congratulations!

The chondrules seem to be quite small, which would speak for an H chondrite in
spite of its being weakly attracted to a magnet and chondrules seem moderately
abundant, which could speak for an H4 chondrite, maybe Hale Center (H4).

If this weak attraction to a magnet is real (I don't know how large these chondrule
diameters really are), we should look for an L chondrite and Hale Center (L5) might
be a good possibility.

Best wishes,

Bernd
