40% of the exterior surface has brown/black, fractured fusion crust. The interior is an 'odd' combination of fine-grained material and a more coarse grained, dark crystalline material, some weathered to a rusty tan color. Some areas are gray with 'holes'. The meteorite has some metal rich inclusions. It is somewhat friable and has a granular texture.
