Looks like a super rare Polymict Ureilite with exotic clasts and chondrule type structures showing dual lithology. Certainly a intriguing and beautiful specimen. A similar Ureilite is DaG 1047 and of course Almahata Sitta. These rare Ureilites have been known to contain ordinary chondrules, and particularly R-chondrite, E-chondrite and Carbonaceous inclusions. |

Yep, Graham, you name it! Looks polymict, ... a fragmental breccia! |

Nice specimen...but no mention of the obvious twin lithology...the centre section looks like some sort of flowing melt...the outside two sections look almost chondritic...any explanation for that? |

Terrific specimen, John. Thanks for sharing the images with us. |
