Thin section TS441 Examination of a thin section shows a chondritic texture, with very diffuse chondrules up to 0.7 mm in diameter (mostly as radial pyroxene and barred olivine) set
In a highly recrystallised matrix. Olivine presents plana fractures. Pyroxene is practically
Orthorhombic. FeNi metallic phase occupies 10% vol. There is accessory troilite. The sample
Is an Ordinary Chondrite, type L (based on diameter of chondrules and amount of free metal), type 6 (based on degree of recrystallization and development of pyroxene, and on the state of
Chemical equilibrium of the chondrules). The shock grade is compatible with S2, presenting
Granulated metal, and only irregular fractures in the minerals. The Weathering grade is
W2 based on the oxidation of metals and silicates .
We visited Morocco in 2017 and visited areas where meteorites were found, but they were extremely difficult to find. In several hours we only found one small meteorite. Two images enclosed when we went fossicking for meteorites.
