This is confusing to me too;
"NWA 1139 MAIN MASS"
"Meteorite has a nice dark matrix with lots of metal flakes. One stone with
a total weight of only 61.6 grams and the complete uncut mass, otherwise
known as the Main Mass or the Complete Mass."

How do you know what the matrix is like if this is an uncut stone and one of
a kind?


Thanks, Tom
