Anita ,just to clarify , an armoured chondrule is one that is surrounded by metal as found in nwa801 CR2 and others.I have seen some in NWA 869 but I'm fairly certain there is not enough metal in CV types to form an armoured chondrule.The one in the centre of this slice is referred to as a bleached chondrule, or bullseye chondrule as far as I'm aware.

This has always been one of my favorite hot desert CV3's. :)
