A microscopy study of the NWA2086 and NWA7043 meteorites
Abstract
In this work a study of the NWA2086 and NWA7043 meteorites based on microscopy analysis is presented. These meteorites are carbonaceous chondrites whose meteoritic matrix has micro-sized elongated bodies. Additionally, the NWA2086 and NWA7043 contains many chondrules rich in olivine and clinopyroxene. According to the Scott-Taylor- Jones classification, these chondrules are type I. Many of these chondrules have thin rims probably created by heating events in the solar nebula.
