[meteorite-list] KATOL (L6) is official

[Michael Farmer]

Yes, this piece is oriented heat shield shaped with countless flow lines and bubbles on the thick backside crust. There are a couple of crystal-rich sections. It is one of my favorite pieces in my collection, the adventure to acquire was a little scary. 
Laurence Garvie has taken many photos of it, I am sure he has incredible photos I haven't seen. This photo was the only one I got.
The piece is still at ASU on loan, it will be on display at the Tucson show.
