Hi Sonny and List,

Sincere congratulations on your latest US chondrite find! I assume you're talking
about this 12.2-gram chondrite. Exceptionally interesting is that even though this
meteorite looks quite weathered, the remnant fusion crust looks quite fresh as if
the fusion crust had "weathered" the weathering influences!

Best wishes from
rainy Germany,

Bernd
