234,00 $

Gyarub Zangbo is a pallasite meteorite discovered in Tibet in 2020, weighing just 18 kg.
Its mineral composition, the oxygen and chromium isotopes in the olivine, and the metallic phase classify this pallasite as an anomalous carbonaceous pallasite.

Gyarub Zangbo appears to be a unique pallasite collected from an asteroid not yet represented in the pallasite collection.

 

Pallasites are unique stony-iron meteorites composed primarily of olivine and iron-rich metal.
They are believed to have formed in the boundary region between the core and the mantle of asteroids, within the asteroids themselves.

Pallasites are meteorites composed of olivine crystals embedded in an iron-nickel matrix.
Pallasites are among the most aesthetically pleasing meteorites.
