Chelyabinsk Meteorite For Sale

The Chelyabinsk meteorite is a stone meteorite of the chondrite type. Chelyabinsk has been classified as an LL5. This means that it has a low amount of metallic iron and a low amount of iron in mineral form also. The number five refers to the amount of alteration from its original pristine state at creation, to what it shows now in is structure and texture. The chondrules of a stage 5 chondrite are still fairly easy to see in the rock but have been melted some and are blurred a little into the matrix that surrounds the chondrules.
