Superb specimen in a more 'natural' state. A list member recently collaborated with a UK group that managed to image the interior of a fine specimen like Anne's with a CATscan! It revealed an Easter egg hunting wonderland... Is it a conglomerate of sorts where the silicate clasts are a.k.a. tektites ;-)

An interesting exterior... thanks for sharing, Anne. To all that celebrate Easter: I hope you have a special day today.

It comes from far, far away, right from the very depths of Space, and it is ... ... AN EGG !!! Well, more or less. Very nice piece, Anne, rarely seen indeed. Thanks and HAPPY EASTER.
