AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
An impactite is a terrestrial rock modified by the impact of a sizeable meteorite.
These rocks contain an agglomeration of dust fallout and fragment debris and form 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 arrondissement of Rochechouart.
The Rochechouart meteorite impact crater is called an astrobleme because it is no longer visible due to erosion.
There are several types of breccias:
Chassenon-type breccias, greenish glass debris.
You can buy with confidence.
My name is Jean Redelsperger, I have been selling meteorites for 15 years to museums, scientists and collectors around the world.
The impactite comes with a certificate of authenticity.
