    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_meteorite_minerals

    A meteorite mineral is a mineral found chiefly or exclusively within meteorites or meteorite-derived material. [citation needed] This is a list of those minerals, excluding minerals also commonly found in terrestrial rocks. As of 1997 there were approximately 295 mineral species which have been identified in meteorites. [1]

    The new mineral was found along with hexamolybdenum. [2] These minerals, are believed to demonstrate conditions during the early stages of the Solar System, as is the case with many CV3 carbonaceous chondrites such as the Allende meteorite. [2] It is named after the Allende meteorite that fell in 1969 near Pueblito de Allende, Chihuahua, Mexico ...

    Panguite is a type of titanium oxide mineral first discovered as an inclusion within the Allende meteorite, and first described in 2012. [4] [5]The hitherto unknown meteorite mineral was named for the ancient Chinese god Pan Gu, the creator of the world through the separation of yin (earth) from yang (sky).

  5. Brezinaite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brezinaite

    Brezinaite, discovered in 1969, is a rare mineral composed of chromium and sulfur. It is found in meteorites, such as the Tucson Ring meteorite (Irwin-Ainsa meteorite), its type locality. It was also found in the New Baltimore meteorite and the Sikhote-Alin meteorite.

  6. Hexamolybdenum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexamolybdenum

    The Allende meteorite has shown to be full of new minerals, after nearly forty years it has produced one in ten of the now known minerals in meteorites. [4] This CV3 carbonaceous chondrite was the largest ever recovered on earth and is referred to as the best-studied meteorite in history. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elaliite

    Elaliite is a mineral with formula Fe 9 PO 12 (or Fe 2+ 8 Fe 3+ (PO 4)O 8) that was first synthesized in a laboratory in the 1980s and later identified in natural material in 2022 at which time the official mineral designation was given. The mineral is orthorhombic, with space group Cmmm (space group 65). [1]
