Two part slices. The main picture is 31.51 grams and the roll-over is 35.12 grams.   L5

TKW 7.32 kg. Fall not observed. Found 2013 in Northwest Africa.

Ian writes:
Acquired from Hanno Strufe, who holds the main mass.

Each part slice I polished using 180, 400, 800, 1500 and 2000 grit papers.

Bernd Pauli made the observation that "The 31.51g slice has a perfect, slightly oval bleached chondrule (a.k.a. bull's eye chondrule) right of center".
