REPOSITORY

 LABORATORY'S REPOSITORY


Hundreds of specimens are currently kept in the laboratory's repository. Some specimens are shared on this page. Enjoy!

Most of the samples are from officially classified meteorites, but conclusive specimens of the hundreds of analyzes that have been carried out in this laboratory are also preserved.  

The specimens kept in the repository are a valuable asset to science. Of these, numerous analyzes have been carried out, and some of them have been requested by various institutions to carry out analyzes.

In general, it is not allowed to donate fragments of the repository, but its use for scientific research (with prior authorization) by non-destructive techniques is allowed.

The repository holds samples of hand specimens, thin sections and fragments in vials.  The repository holds samples of hand specimens, thin sections and fragments in vials. Among the stored specimens there are both meteorites, impactites, tektites, impact glass and associated phenomena.

Welcome to Meteorites Lab

Welcome to METEORITES LAB,  for petrographic studies, and also preparation and conservation of astromaterials and geological samples (rocks, fossils, lavas, etc) for scientists and collectors, and classification of new meteorites in The Meteoritical Bulletin. Quite often I receive notifications from people who believe they have found a meteorite, and turn to me for study. For this reason, there is a Research protocol to which I can receive your samples for study and classification of astromaterials. Then I leave the information regarding this research protocol and how to proceed to submit your samples for analyses. Curation services are also offered for the preservation, documentation and preparation of samples. Uncovered thin section preparation service for the classification of meteorites and rock petrography sections for educational purposes.  AVOID LEGAL TROUBLES.   The identification of meteorites by petrographic techniques does not compromise that advanced techniques can vary
