Best CM2

Aguas Zarcas is a CM2 carbonaceous chondrite that fell over Costa Rica on 23 April 2019. Residents and researchers recovered numerous fragments soon after the event, including material that had avoided prolonged exposure to soil, rain, and handling. Its hydrated minerals and diverse carbon-bearing c...

The Winchcombe meteorite is a CM2 carbonaceous chondrite that fell over Gloucestershire, England, on 28 February 2021. Pieces were recovered rapidly after its bright fireball was recorded, limiting terrestrial contamination and giving researchers unusually pristine material. It contains hydrated min...

Murray is a CM2 carbonaceous chondrite that fell near Murray, Kentucky, in 1950. Like other meteorites of its class, it contains water-altered minerals, carbon-bearing compounds, and amino acids, making it an important specimen for research on organic chemistry in the early solar system. Scientists...

Cold Bokkeveld is a CM2 carbonaceous chondrite that fell in South Africa's Cold Bokkeveld region in 1838. Its fine-grained material contains hydrated minerals produced by interaction with liquid water on its parent body, while its carbon-rich composition has also attracted investigation of extraterr...

Nogoya is a CM2 carbonaceous chondrite meteorite associated with Entre Ríos Province, Argentina. Meteorites of this class contain abundant hydrated minerals produced through interaction with water on their parent asteroid, along with carbon-bearing compounds and fine-grained primitive material. Nogo...

Carbonaceous chondrite (CM2) found near Bells, Texas, USA in 1961, notable for rich organic chemistry and extensive aqueous alteration of its primary minerals.

Meteorite found in Norway, one of the rare documented meteorite recoveries from Scandinavia, preserved in Norwegian natural history collections.
