Photo 2 is a 17.64 gram slice of NWA 7731, the only approved L3.00. TKW is 81 grams.

Photo 3 is a 44.55 gram slice of NWA 7651, classified Eucrite-CM. TKW is 2.48 kg.

Photo 4 is a 27.83 gram stone that has been certified by Tony Irving to be paired with NWA 7325, achondrite-ung. The green "alligator skin" fusion crust is amazing!
