You can see it the last 9 beautiful slice of Vaca Muerta olivine cluster in
www.meteorites.cl/for-sale.html last green button (VM Olivine Cluster).
These slices have the best surface/volume relation.
This very rare silicate with large olivine crystals was found inside of a
large and fractured Vaca Muerta meteorite of 400kg. The total mass of this
beutiful silicate was 262g. Some slices show small and scarce metal
inclusions.
Vaca Muerta is a differentiated silicate and metal rich meteorite containing
many silicate and eucrite inclusion around 10% in volume surrouded by a
matrix of mesosiderite composition
The Vaca Muerta parent body must have been impacted several times by
different types of material to break up, mix, and fuse the various
constituent pieces.
