The fusion crust on this ureilite is very thin. The exterior surfaces are smooth and have a dull sheen. The overall exterior color is brownish-black. Crystalline grains with well-developed crystal faces make up the interior. Most of the center of this achondrite is heavily oxidized giving it a reddish-brown color.
