# NASA data for EET 92065 Weathering: B Fracturing: B/C Pairing: EET 87711 Fa: 1-4 mol % Fs: 3-6 mol %
At least 50% of each of these nine specimens are covered with weathered fusion crust. The fusion crust on EET92042 is frothy and black, where it is dull and brown on the other eight specimens. Fractures penetrate the interior of all specimens and they are all moderately to heavily oxidized. All of the interiors are rusty brown to black in color and contain numerous chondrules/inclusions that range from 1 mm to 4 mm in size. Small amounts of white evaporite deposit were noted on 92062 and 92092. The evaporite deposit on 92042 has a bluish color.
