Clear Grain In Orange Matrix

A clear, glassy grain sits in an orange-stained, pale matrix.
Meteorite check: Unlikely, because the features look sedimentary or terrestrial. Transparent grains in an orange matrix point to quartz or calcite in iron-stained sediment.
Not identified as carbonado. Specimens are under study and not lab-confirmed.
