Best Enstatite Chondrite

Qingzhen is an EH3 enstatite chondrite meteorite that fell in Guizhou, China, in 1976. The EH designation places it among high-iron enstatite chondrites, while petrologic type 3 indicates comparatively limited thermal equilibration and the preservation of primitive textures. Its highly reduced miner...

Indarch is an EH4 enstatite chondrite that fell near Shusha in present-day Azerbaijan in 1891. Its highly reduced mineral assemblage includes abundant enstatite, iron-nickel metal, and sulfide minerals, with little iron bound into silicates. Researchers study Indarch to investigate the formation of...

EL6 enstatite chondrite that fell in Finland in 1901, a key reference sample for the low-iron (EL) enstatite chondrite group in geochemical classifications.

EL6 enstatite chondrite found in Pakistan in 1873, one of the most-studied low-iron enstatite chondrites and an important reference for the EL chondrite group.

EH5 enstatite chondrite that fell in Florida, USA in 1937, a well-characterized member of the high-iron enstatite chondrite group used in comparative studies.

Aubrite (enstatite achondrite) found in the Northern Cape, South Africa in 1868, one of the few aubrites recovered from the African continent.

Chondrite that fell in Bihar, India, in 1942, studied for its primitive mineral assemblage as a record of early solar system chemistry.
