In this slice can you see eucritic and diogenetic material embedded in a achondritic melt rock matrix. The melt breccia consists of large black-white speckled to completely black melt regions showing pronounced flow structures.

Hi Andy, thanks for your commment. But the DIO is a HOWi ; ) The black spot is unfortunately not carbonaceous. I think, its shock-darkened pyroxene.

Interesting DIO! Black spot on top part of a carbonaceous chondrite?
