Total Known Weight: 500 g
Description: Beautiful CV3 with abundant chondrules and pre-solar grains, including PO and POP type chondrules, CAIs and AOAs.
Calcium–aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) are the oldest known solids in the solar system, formed from high-temperature condensates in the solar nebula over 4.56 billion years ago.
Amoeboid Olivine Aggregates (AOAs) are irregularly shaped, fine-grained objects common in carbonaceous chondrites, consisting of olivine, Ca-Al-rich inclusions (CAIs), and FeNi-metal. They are important because their mineralogy and isotopic compositions provide crucial evidence for nebular processes and subsequent alteration on their parent bodies, helping to constrain models of early Solar System evolution.
We purchased multiple, complete stones from a dealer in Algeria. The Majority of the stones have fresh fusion crust and abundant, equilibrated chondrules visible on cut faces. We subsequently had them classified as NWA 17755 a Carbonaceous Chondrite of the type CV3.
