Stromatolites are fossilized carbonate structures.
These are among the oldest known fossils, dating back to 3.5 Ga (in Australia). They were formed by cyanobacteria (“blue-green algae”). Using the sun to harness energy, they produced and increased the oxygen content of the earth’s atmosphere to around 20%, enabling life to flourish.
These 25 million-year-old stromatolites were found in France, in the heart of the city of Clermont-Ferrand, at the summit of a volcano called Montjuzet.

Trinitite is a glass made during the 1st nuclear explosion called Trinity, in Alamogordo, New Mexico, on July 16, 1945. Trinitite is made from the vitrification of the desert sand linked to the different elements of the structure on which the bomb rested and the bomb itself. Recently, researchers discovered that a piece of red Trinitrite took the form of a quasicrystal. First discovered in the laboratory in the 1980s, quasicrystals also occur in nature, notably in meteorites. Signalons que la Trinitite n’est pas du tout radioactive.

Trinitite is a glass produced during the 1st nuclear explosion called Trinity, in Alamogordo, New Mexico, on July 16, 1945. Trinitite is the result of the vitrification of desert sand bonded to the various components of the structure on which the bomb rested, and of the bomb itself. Recently, researchers discovered that a piece of red Trinitrite took the form of a quasicrystal. First discovered in the laboratory in the 1980s, quasicrystals also occur in nature, notably in meteorites. The Trinitrite is not at all radioactive.

Oued Awlitis 003is a brecciated LL6 meteorite of 1141 grams. It was discovered in 2011 near the village of Lemluia in the Western Sahara. Other meteorites have been found in the same area, a lunar meteorite Oued Awlitis 001and a carbonaceous type CV3 meteorite Oued Awlitis 002. This is a very rich area where other meteorites will be found.
