From the MetBul:

Petrography: Examination of polished and etched surfaces shows a well-defined Widmanstaetten pattern with bandwidth 0.9±0.1 mm (n=27) consistent with a medium octahedrite. Sub-mm schreibersite and troilite inclusions were observed. Some terrestrial alteration extends into the interior along grain boundaries.
