Itqiy EH7-an #1 – 5,63 g

1.115,32 $

To date, Itqiy is the only meteorite in the world classified as EH7-an.

It is an enstatite chondrite, an important class of chondrites that mostly exhibit sub-solar Mg/Si and refractory/Si ratios, oxygen isotopic compositions close to the terrestrial fractionation line and highly reduced mineral assemblages (containing little FeO, Si-bearing metal and sulfides of elements normally considered lithophilic).

This highly metamorphosed meteorite has a very unique texture !

The Earth seems to have been formed from celestial bodies whose composition is close to that of enstatite chondrites.
