Chondrite Meteorite
L5-6 S3 W3
After having obtained all the analytical data, and after having carefully evaluated them, taking into account the geological and meteorite standards mentioned in references, the the analyzed sample is identified as L-chondrite meteorite, obtaining MgO/MnO ratios in this chemical group.
Petrography; The sample shows chondritic texture, and it is composed of recognizable chondrules up to 0.7 =- 0.5 mm (n=15) in diameter, chondrule fragments and mineral clasts. The matrix ( 35 vol%)
Is composed of compacted fine dust. Olivine is zoned, with undulatory extinction and irregular fractures. Pyroxene shows exsolution. Metallic phased occupied 12vol%, and it is composed of FeNi
(kamacite sand minor taenite), granular. Accessory is troilite and opaques
For all these reasons, the analyzed sample for their characterizations and analysis have yielded
POSITIVE results in its compatibility for meteorites, being in this case, an ordinary chondrite,
Type L5-6 (based on XRF data, diameter of chondrules and Fe content), with a shock degree S3 (based on planar deformation and irregular fractures in silicates) and with a weathering degree W3 (based on iron oxidation and silicates alteration.

Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a person is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on behalf of the bidder, incrementally increasing the bid up to the maximum to maintain their position as the highest bidder.
When there is an icon indicating 'Automatic Bid', it means our system is actively placing bids for the bidder based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if bidders are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the bidders maximum limit.
