XXL MUNDRABILLA Sculptural Metal Meteorite, VERY RARE - 133.7 g

Complete piece of great beauty, due to its shape and being one of the rarest and most difficult meteorites to get, since it has been forbidden to take meteorites out of Australia for years, so only few pieces from private collections are on sale Iron meteorites are composed mainly of iron and nickel. Actually, they are a piece of an asteroid core. In the differentiation process, when the asteroid is a ball of magma, during its formation, iron and nickel settle to the core of the asteroid, as they are the heaviest elements. After cooling, the asteroid metal core is formed. Through catastrophic collisions, the asteroid and its core break and the fragments remain in space, until a piece falls into our planet. They are estimated to account for 5. 7% of falls. At Expometeoritos, we take care of dissemination, talks, workshops, analyses, classification and exhibitions of meteorites. We are members of: .
