The olivines are translucent to light
Mesosiderites are metal-rich stony meteorites formed by the impact, usually of a body of metallic nature against a rocky body, such that after the impact the materials become mixed.
Some studies suggest that the impact occurred with the asteroid Vesta, from which the meteorites called "HED" (Howardites, Eucrites, Diogenites) originate
At Expometeoritos, we take care of the outreach, talks, workshops, analyses, classification and exhibitions of Meteorites.
