WATSON, South Australia
This is a highly unusual meteorite. Within this
otherwise ordinary
iron meteorite is a large intrusion of achondritic stone. It is as though
the metal flowed around the existing stone or perhaps the stone was injected
in a molten state into a seam in the metal. Interestingly, there doesn't
seem to be any heat alteration of either material at their interface. This
is a 2 Kg slice. |
