Mesosiderites are formed on the surface of a parent body as a result of impacts with another body. The impact mixed broken fragments of surface eucrites with iron and olivine from deep within the body. Eucrites are believed to have come from the asteroid Vesta. Analysis has shown, however, that the Vaca Muerta eucrite inclusions are not consistent with other eucrites and possibly originated on a different parent body. Although most have a weathered exterior, they also have lots of metal inside and can be prepared and cut to show this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis piece displays extremely well and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Comes with a Canagem® specimen card.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Canagem.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":71156672692477,"sku":"01-01314","price":40.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0053\/3309\/0374\/files\/20260808_165816.jpg?v=1787166839","url":"https:\/\/canagem.com\/products\/vaca-muerta-meteorite-2-46-grams-individual-mesosiderite-a1-famous-chile","provider":"Canagem.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
