I won a slice of the famous Seymchan meteorite at the last RR Auction (in addition to the Soyuz space clock we saw in the last video)! It basically is a piece of the iron core of a very ancient proto-planet. Now I get to unbox it!

I have two pieces of pallasite meteorite, a piece of Seymchan and a piece of Fukang. The olivine crystals in Fukang is much bigger than those in Seymchan, but I found the olivines in Seymchan more colourful. My own piece of Seymchan is not of good quality though. Will buy a better piece if I have the opportunity.

Would be cool if all the Seymchan people would gather online to post all their slices. :)

Amazing, to think that this thing was traveling through space for so long just for our planet to get in its way xD. Keep up the good work.

However, for some unknown reasons, all my meterorites tend to rust. So now I have no choice but to put all of them in a sealed container with calcium metal......

Moisture in contact with the iron bits. Probably from handling. Dip and clean them in alcohol and display them without getting touchy touchy with them. :)

For ages and ages I've been asking "why are there these iron rich meteorites?!" And now, finally, a self-proclaimed "not a mineralogist" has explained their origin in a way I can understand! :) It's good that the nickel makes it corrosion resistant... it would be a heartbreak to spend loads of money and get a genuine piece of extra-terrestrial material only for it to dissolve into rust! Why send astronauts to the moon to collect rocks when impact events will just send specimens to the Earth for free? ;) Looking forward to seeing Marcel's collection of space junk. :)

If you go to the Moon, you can get samples of stuff that's too small to survive entering the Earth's atmosphere, like regolith. You also avoid contamination. I'm sure there's other reasons, too.

What I find ludicrous is that every atom of every heavy element on this Earth was made in a supernova more than 4.5 billion years ago. There's nothing unique about a piece from outer space. We are all made of stardust, quite literally.

The first ancient iron tools ever where made with meteorite iron, way before iron smelting was invented. newatlas.com/bronze-age-iron-tools-meteorites/52474/ And we still have some of them because it doesn’t rust very easily.

@@CuriousMarc Very likely one of the kickstarters of the iron age. I mean, it only takes so many of these repeat processes to kind of get the idea of what you're supposed to do. I bet once they figured that heavy rocks had something to do with it. They started melting a lot of them.

If this metal is iron, sooner or later it will rust. Does it have some kind of coating in order to prevent rust?

That red crystal might be ruby? But strange that a light material such as ruby (aluminium oxide) would be found in that mix.

Awww... maybe garnet? Much heavier mineral, also containing iron.
@CuriousMarc
@CuriousMarc 4 года назад
@Sixta16: good thinking, garnet sounds quite plausible. Maybe Majorite then? A Mg based garnet that’s thought to be abundant within Earth mantle with Olivine. My knowledge of Majorite comes from browsing Wikipedia, so take it with a large grain of salt: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Majorite
