GUJBA - zeer zeldzame Bencubbin-achtige meteoriet - Koolstofhoudende chondriet CBa - eindstuk! - Hoogte: 14 mm - Breedte: 17 mm - 2.7 g
GUJBA is an exceedingly exotic coarse-grained bencubbinite, only a handful are known,
and it is the ONLY bencubbinite witnessed fall.
Gujba is made up of large ellipsoidal metal nodules and ever-larger silicate nodules
consisting of fine-grained fan-like arrays of pyroxene. It also contains some mineral
grains that can only exist as a result of tremendous shock-pressure. It is believed to
have formed within an impact plume caused by a cataclysmic collision on a chondritic
asteroid billions of years ago. It is a artifact from the early history of our solar system..
Gujba is widely considered to be one of the most beautiful meteorites in the world
with its huge brecciated silicate and metal globules and dark fragment-rich matrix.
These Silicates possess reddish oxide and cream, grey, red, black and brown colors
which, when contrasted with the bright metal spheroids, create a gorgeous, unique
appearance matched by no other meteorite in the world.
A unique, sought after cosmic jewel to add to your collection!
