NWA 7669, LL3

This oriented stone has nice flow lines and what appears to be a huge type B CAI in the cut face, which is pretty uncommon for an ordinary chondrite.  It might just be a large POP chondrule.  Good chondrules, and the mean Cr2O3 in ferroan olivine suggests it’s an LL3.2 or slightly higher.


Thanks to Adam Aaronson for this stone.
