AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful piece of a metallic-rosy meteorite, mesosiderite type, with good size and shape.

New classification 2020

We can observe the surface with the different olivines, metals and crust

The olivines are translucent to light

Mesosiderites are metal-rock meteorites formed by impact, normally of a body of metallic nature against a rocky body, so that after the impact, the materials are mixed.

Some studies suggest that the impact occurred with the asteroid Vesta, from which the meteorites known as "HED" (Howardites, Eucrites, Diogenites) originate

At Expometeoritos, we handle outreach, talks, workshops, analyses, classification and exhibitions of meteorites.
