Petrography: (A. Irving,UWSand J. Boesenberg,BrownU) Breccia composed predominantly of gabbroic and diabasic eucrite clasts and related mineral debris together with <10 vol.% diogenitic orthopyroxene (exhibiting undulose extinction). Other minerals are calcic plagioclase (polycrystalline), exsolved pigeonite, silica polymorph, ilmenite, chromite, troilite, ulvöspinel and altered Fe metal, plus minor secondary barite and calcite.
