[meteorite-list] Keith's Tucson Meteorite of the Day

[Christian Anger]

Isn't each rectangular slice also a geometric figure ? e.g. a square ?
So this is a cube. It displays wonderful the 3-dimensional arrangement of the crystals, as
this cube is cut 45° to the axis of the crystals. Wonderful 3D-Display!
