Lot 151 | A TRANSITIONAL SLICE OF SEYMCHAN METEORITE
Valeur estimée
£ 5 000 – 8 000
A Seymchan transitional pallasite slice and 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.
53/4 x 41/4in. (14.5 x 11 x 0.4cm.)
206g.
