Hello

For me to see it is a xenolithic inclusion.

a xenolith is a fragment of rock differing in origin, composition, =
structure, etc., from the rock enclosing it.

It looks alot like the NWA900 (NWA869?) taht Matteo have sold, and is =
pictured in Nortons "The Cambridge encyclopedia of meteorites" page 144.

There it is achondrittic rock inclosed in a chondritic host.

I think the same thing is the case here.

:-)
