Nice brecciation! The grey lithology (not pictured here) also looks much more heterogeneous.

I meant Algeria for the other one, with AH-003 from Western Sahara. Oops..

I see this meteorite has lichens that have been found on the surface. The MetBull only has 5 meteorites using the term lichens in the text, and three of those were found in Australia. The other in Western Sahara. Of the five there are 2-eucrites, 2-L's and 1-H type.
