Impactite Babaudus Slice - Height: 11 cm - Width: 7 cm- 200 g - (1)

An impactite is a terrestrial rock modified by the impact of a sizable meteorite. These rocks contain an agglomeration of dust fallout and fragment debris, forming what is called a breccia. The Rochechouart impactites were formed following the impact of a meteorite about 207 million years ago in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, in the Rochechouart district. The impact crater of the Rochechouart meteorite is called an astrobleme because it is no longer visible due to erosion.
There are several types of breccias:
Babaudus-type breccias, rich in glass with a fluidal texture and in vesicles, are found only at the center of the astrobleme.
These breccias are contaminated with chromium, nickel and cobalt, metals largely derived from the asteroid.
