Ten percent of the original fusion crust remains on LEW88005. Many large semi-rounded clasts, as large as 2 x 2 cm, are present. These clasts include mono- and poly-mineralic clasts, aphantic clasts and eucritic type clasts. Several areas are stained with oxidation. In hand specimen, LEW88005 closely resembles LEW85300, LEW85302 and LEW85303.
