THMM1065

Classification: Unmelted Micrometeorite (UMM)

Size: 180 x 220 µm | Shape: irregular | Colour: grey/black

Crystalline structure: non-oriented crystals

Magnetite: single crystals, Cr-rich spinels

Chromite

Other surface properties: porous, microtails

Interior: relict minerals/chondrule: radial pyroxene (similar to TAM20C-345 [Suttle et al. 2020] and CP94-050-171 [Genge et al. 2005])

O-isotope analysis suggests that atmospheric oxygen was not incorporated, thereby supporting the interpretation that the texture formed before the object entered Earth’s atmosphere
