Unclassified Saharan Meteorite

Here is a meteorite which I purchased from the Hupé Collection. It has a small TKW of just 9.50g which is all pictured here. It has quite an unusual matrix with numerous small black inclusions which look like charcoal to the naked-eye. There appears to be very few visible chondrules. The meteorite also has a very 'sandy' texture and make-up. Take a look at the great photo below which is courtesy of the Hupés. This specimen is part of the Meteorites Australia Collection.
