Description from the seller
Beautiful Meteorite Piece: Metal-Rocky, Mesosiderite type, of 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-rich stony meteorites formed by impact, such that after the impact the materials are mixed.
Some studies suggest the impact occurred with the asteroid Vesta, from which the meteorites known as "HED" (Howardites, Eucrites, Diogenites) originate
At Expometeoritos, we handle outreach, lectures, workshops, analyses, classification and exhibitions of Meteorites.
We are members of:
.- IMCA (International Meteorite Collectors Association) #8187

All of our pieces are certified and, in addition, we provide the chemical composition analysis if the piece’s value exceeds €300, performed at our facilities by X-ray spectroscopy.
