Thank you everybody. To be honest this slice of Rammya and the picture belong to a friend of mine. Thank you Mike, glad I could surprise you!, and if you need it for a book, I can ask him and I am quite sure there will be no problem. Graham, no problem, since those are your own private notes. And Mendy I do have a much smaller piece of Rammya (4.44g), it does not really show the melt, probably because it is too small.

Anne, Gao's occassionally show these impact melt structures as well. Does the entire Rammya meteorite also show this beautiful melt?

You NEVER fail to amaze me with what you come up with, Anne! Thanks for sharing with us... Differentiation is great. I will have to contact you offline about using this photo in my new Meteorites book!

This is one I will add to my notes if that is OK Anne? Lots of metal and this piece shows an unusual matrix with the different surface areas. Great post :)
