Many small, similar-appearing stones were found together in Algeria on March 24, 2022
The stones (total 2090 g) lack fusion crust and have light brown weathered exteriors. Fresh interiors are medium gray with diffuse small white clasts and rare tiny metal grains visible.
Electron microprobe analyses were conducted on small slices from four separate stones. Although there is some mineralogical and compositional heterogeneity among these pieces, all consist of mineral clasts of calcic plagioclase, olivine, low-Ca pyroxene and augite within a very fine grained, sparsely microvesicular matrix
