description Overview
Lancé
Lancé is a CO3 carbonaceous chondrite that fell in France in 1872. CO meteorites are characterized by abundant, generally small chondrules set within fine-grained material, and their type 3 classification indicates limited thermal equilibration compared with more metamorphosed chondrites. Lancé therefore provides researchers with comparatively primitive material for examining chondrule formation,...

Orgueil
Orgueil is a CI1 carbonaceous chondrite meteorite that fell near Orgueil in southern France on 14 May 1864. CI chondrites are chemically primitive, fine-grained rocks rich in hydrated minerals and organic compounds, and their nonvolatile elemental abundances closely resemble those measured in the solar photosphere. Because the material has undergone extensive alteration by water on its parent body...
