Lot 15 | A TRANSITIONAL SLICE OF SEYMCHAN METEORITE
Valeur estimée
£ 18 000 – 25 000
This Seymchan transitional pallasite slice is a notable example of the textural heterogeneity of the Seymchan meteorite. The metal-rich areas display a prominent Widmanstätten pattern and represent the olivine-free region at the top of the iron-nickel core. The olivine-rich aggregates were derived from a fragmented olivine layer at the bottom of the mantle that was invaded by a metallic liquid during mixing at the core-mantle boundary; supported on fitted stand.
131/4 x 81/4in. (34 x 21 x 0.3cm.)
