    Description

    For sale is this 86 grams Los Vientos 171 meteorite. This is a
    stunning
    end-cut that is easily one of the prettiest ordinary chondrite encountered by this collector. This piece has an array of closely-packed and well-defined chondrules of various sizes, shapes and colors.
    It has a petrological grade of LL3.1 and a low weathering grade of W0/1, both contributing to it being a beautiful, bright fresh end-cut chondrite. This is the best of both worlds with a rough textured exterior and smooth interior.  Pictures 7 & 8 were taken using a reflective cross polarized lighting system.  This allow a view of the exterior (natural) side of this meteorite showing an abundance of chondrules!  Fantastic piece!!
    This is only 1 of 9 classified as an LL3.1
    Lowest Weathering Grade of all LL3.1 (W 0/1)
