| Description |
Ataxite (field of view ~2.5 cm across) - a cut, polished, nitric acid-etched surface of the Santiago Papasquiero Meteorite, found in 1958 in Durango, Mexico. It consists of a finely crystalline mix of kamacite & taenite, plus other minor minerals. Santiago Papasquiero is a strange ataxite that appears to be a completely metamorphosed and recrystallized octahedrite. Most recrystallized octahedrites still retain vague hints of the original Widmanstätten structure. This meteorite doesn't have any, so it isn’t an octahedrite - it’s an ataxite. Published chemical info. indicates that Santiago Papasquiero has 7.5% nickel content overall. The kamacite component has 6.8% Ni. The taenite component has 30% Ni. |
