BJURBOLE, Finland

This extremely fragile, chondritic meteorite fell on sea ice and somehow both the ice and the meteorite survived the impact. This is especially surprising because Bjurbole will literally crumble to pieces in your hand. An L4, one can see that these multi-sized chondrules have been only slightly pressure changed. This was a trade piece from Helsinki.
