Here's an endcut of the NWA 8417 LL7 chondrite. The interior is pale green,
there are some visible FeNi specks, some areas show brown stains. On the right
you can see a large oikocryst (the enclosing crystal in poikilitic fabric) of orthopyroxene (9 x 7 mm), a smaller one can
be seen in the 11 o'clock position. Chondrules are absent. Interesting feature:
triple junctions.
