thanks SAID for your opinion, this specimen intrigues me more and more |
Said Yousfi 4/7/2020 7:44:29 AM |
Nice piece, in my opinion it's a primitive achondrite meteorite.probaly Winonaite. |
Paladino vincenzino 4/5/2020 3:48:16 PM |
thanks ken, i still looked under the microscope today, the meteorite is very rich in olivine. the forward part is really full |

Get it tested from a very thins slice ,
Find out what it is first . Then decide what to do .
Fantastic meteorite. I don't think it is a urelite but is very special . Test 1st before cutting !!!! |
Paladino vincenzino 4/5/2020 1:48:59 PM |
thanks Andi of your opinion, I appreciate it very much |
Andi Koppelt 4/5/2020 1:39:13 PM |
Maybe even angrite? Yes, I think there is a chance, so worth cutting. |
Paladino vincenzino 4/5/2020 7:13:21 AM |
Urelite was our first idea |
Dirk Hohmann 4/5/2020 5:07:13 AM |
Could be a Ureilite maybe. |
Michael Mulgrew 4/4/2020 3:56:43 PM |
Fascinating. |

Thanks for the post! |
Paladino vincenzino 4/4/2020 3:47:51 PM |
Andi then you think it is worth cutting it? |
Andi Koppelt 4/4/2020 3:26:20 PM |
Very magnetic? Strange. Always a problem to cut 20 percent for classification from a little beauty meteorite with less than 100g. But in this case I*d do it. |
Paladino vincenzino 4/4/2020 11:46:25 AM |
it is very magnetic, especially the right side |
Bernd Pauli 4/4/2020 11:26:30 AM |
Yes, those bright green chromium-rich pyroxenes we see in Katol ... but if achondritic we are maybe looking at a diogenite - just think of Johnstown! |
Paladino vincenzino 4/4/2020 10:25:02 AM |
thanks Andi of your opinion, it is certainly a very intriguing specimen |
Andi Koppelt 4/4/2020 10:15:57 AM |
I*d guess some kind of achondrite, not a chondrite. But since Katol and its apple green crystals, nobody knows... |
Paladino vincenzino 4/4/2020 8:05:42 AM |
thank you all it is one of my most beautiful oriented. I have often looked at it under a microscope, and all these crystals (especially the part behind the photo 5 and 6) are magnificent. I wonder what kind of meteorite is it? |
Graham Ensor 4/4/2020 4:33:37 AM |
Lovely oriemtation on that one. |
Bernd Pauli 4/4/2020 4:17:49 AM |
Flight-oriented shield ... fantastic! |
Peter Marmet 4/4/2020 3:44:51 AM |
Super! Incroyable! F*licitations, Enzo! |
