Gyarub Zangbo is a pallasite-type meteorite discovered in Tibet in 2020, weighing just 18 kg.
The mineral chemistry, the O and Cr isotopes of olivine and the metallic phase make this an anomalous carbonaceous pallasite.
Gyarub Zangbo appears to be a unique pallasite from a previously unrepresented asteroid in the pallasite collection.
Pallasites are unique stony-iron meteorites composed mainly of olivine and ferrous metal.
They are thought to have formed in the boundary region between the core and mantle of asteroids, inside asteroids.
Pallasites are meteorites composed of olivine crystals embedded in an iron-nickel matrix.
Pallasites are among the most aesthetically pleasing of meteorites.
Exceptional quality !
