    Achondrite. — Type —. Cumberland Falls, achondrite ( aubrite) Compositional type. Stony. A eucrite achondrite from the Millbillillie meteorite shower. An achondrite [1] is a stony meteorite that does not contain chondrules. [2] [3] It consists of material similar to terrestrial basalts or plutonic rocks and has been differentiated and ...

  2. Chondrites. Chondrites Von Sternberg, 1833 es un paragénero de icnofósiles presente en rocas sedimentarias de facies litoral a marina profunda, presente e incluso abundante en zonas abisales con cierto nivel de anoxia. Estas trazas fósiles se presentan en un amplio rango temporal, desde el Precámbrico hasta la actualidad.

  3. Meteorite - Achondrite, Chondrite, Stony: Achondrites, their name meaning “without chondrites,” are a relatively small but diverse group of meteorites. They exhibit a range of features that would be expected if their parent bodies experienced widespread melting: igneous features similar to those observed in terrestrial volcanic rocks, segregation of molten metal (possibly into a core) from ...

    A chondrite / ˈkɒndraɪt / is a stony (non- metallic) meteorite that has not been modified, by either melting or differentiation of the parent body. [a] [1] They are formed when various types of dust and small grains in the early Solar System accreted to form primitive asteroids. Some such bodies that are captured in the planet's gravity well ...

    Aubrite. Aubrites are a group of meteorites named for Aubres, [1] a small achondrite meteorite that fell in 1836 in Aubres near Nyons, France. They are primarily composed of the orthopyroxene enstatite and are often called enstatite achondrites. Their igneous origin separates them from primitive enstatite achondrites and means they originated ...

  7. Achondrite, any stony meteorite containing no chondrules (small, roughly spherical objects that formed in the solar nebula). The only exclusions are carbonaceous chondrites of the CI group, which, though they are clearly chondrites, are so heavily altered by water that any evidence for their having.

  8. Achondrites. Achondrites lack chondrules, originate on differentiated planetary bodies (ie planetary bodies with a distinct core and crust), such as asteroids, planets, or moons, and were reformed from molten fragments that were flung into space as the result of another collision. Because achondrites closely resemble terrestrial rocks to the ...
