Michael:
This isn't really in regard to Amgala...but I have seen this brown crust on
really REALLY fresh stones sometimes. For example to Worden meteorite had
one side that was light brown in color as compared to the rest of the piece.
My Park Forest piece is like this as well. It always is the trailing edge
for some reason.
