This small end-cut of an unclassified Ordinary Chondrite meteorite offers a subtle yet intriguing glimpse into the composition of early solar system material. The weathered fusion crust and exposed interior reveal a mix of fine-grained matrix and darker clasts, highlighting the brecciated nature of the stone. Though modest in size, the piece retains excellent textural contrast and a natural, unpolished surface that speaks to its journey through space and subsequent fall to Earth. Representing one of the most common but scientifically important meteorite types, this specimen provides a tangible connection to planetary formation and cosmic history.
