Thank's everyone for the nice comments. I'm truly fortunate to have this piece in my collection... It was a gift from a dear friend...

Ur very brave for even handling it given it's extreme friability! You do get a large mass for the weight though.

Stunning Orgueil! ... and Martin Goff's 1.6 gr collection piece certainly dwarfs my 0.046 gr Orgueil which was a gift from another Martin (in the USA)! Hmm, tomorrow's MPOD, what could it be? Maybe Cat Mountain :-)

I love this piece! Just gorgeous and a great example of a CI chondrite.
