Physical characteristics: One stone of 55.5 g. Magnetic susceptibility log χ (× 10-9 m3/kg) = 4.33. Petrography: (Bartoschewitz, Bart) Fine grained with dominantly anhedral olivine (~0.3 mm, mosaicism and undulatory extinction) in a matrix (<0.05 mm) of olivine, pyroxene and plagioclase, with accessory rounded metal and troilite. Chondrules are lacking. Short dark melt veins (approx. 1 × 0.2 mm) of mainly oxidized metal and sulfides. Geochemistry: (Bartoschewitz, Bart and Appel/Mader Kiel) Olivine Fa22.8 - 26.8, CaO 0.1 %, Fe/Mn = 41 (at%). Low-Ca pyroxenes Fs17.2-26.7Wo2.9-0.8; Ca pyroxene Fs18.9-26.2Wo5.5-19.3. metal Ni 13.6-14.3, Co 0.8 (wt%). O-isotopes: (I. A Franchi and R. C. Greenwood, OU) δ17O=3.971‰, δ18O=5.792‰, Δ17O=0.959‰. Classification: (Bartoschewitz, Bart and R. C. Greenwood, OU) Chondrite (L melt rock) Specimens: A total of 11.1 g is on deposit at the University of Kiel.
