After having obtained all the analytical data, and after having carefully evaluated them, taking

The geological and meteorite standards mentioned in references, the analyzed sample is identified as L-chondrite meteorite, obtaining MgO/MnO ratios in this chemical group. Petrography: the sample shows chondritic texture of grey, dispersed matrix, pyroxene rich.

chondrules up to 0.7 (+-0.2), some isolated chondrules up to 2 mm were visible. Metallic phase occupies up to 8% volume. Troilite and opaque as accessory opaque phase.

For all these reasons, the analyzed sample for their characterization and analysis have yielded POSTIVE results in its compatibility for meteorites, being in this case, an ordinary chondrite, type L6

The sample shows chondritic texture of grey, dispersed matrix, pyroxene rich.

Chondrules up to 0.70, some isolated chondrules up to 2 mm were visible

Metallic phase occupies up to 8 % volume.

Troilite and opaque as accessory opaque phase

Analysis have yielded POSITIVE result in its compatibility for meteorites, being in this case, an ordinary chondrite, type L6 (based on XRF data, diameter of chondrules and Fe content) with a shock degree S1 (based on weak undulatory extinction in some crystals) and with a weathering degree W1 (based on low iron oxidation and no silicates alteration).
