If I remember well, and I sold this Tambo quite a while ago, that slice was wedged and the dark part was at least in part the underneath of the weathered surface, I can't call it a crust. I think. |

Nice pattern. Thank you |

the dark area looks like a pyroxene-silicate inclusion |

The internal structure that makes Tambo Quemado so unusual is the result of warming - probably the result of an attempt by natives to melt the meteorite for its iron. |

Tambo Quemado is full of surprises: troilite, schreibersite, silicate-related inclusions, etc. What's that large, dark area? |

Anne...nice specimen of an outstanding iron. I'm generally not a collector of irons, but this is one meteorite I targeted years ago and now I do have a nice slice of T.Q. |
