Characteristics of red meteorites
Generally speaking, meteorites are mostly black or brown, and occasionally blue meteorites appear, which are regarded as rare treasures, while red meteorites have been heard of, but rarely seen. There are two reasons: first, the number of red meteorites is scarce; Second, people don't know enough about red meteorites. Perhaps because of tradition and habit, the main reason why red meteorites rarely appear in the collection market is a question of understanding. Because of its high value, we are very cautious about special suspected meteorites that are unfamiliar and unknown. It is also for this reason that there are few opportunities for red meteorites to appear.

In fact, the so-called red meteorite is only the color of the molten shell is red, not the internal minerals are red. The gas marks and specific gravity of this meteorite are very prominent, and the order of explosion is consistent with that of meteorites of other colors in the thickness of molten shell, and the traces of one or several explosions are still clear. The only external difference is that the wax on the surface of meteorites is not as obvious as other colors. In fact, the wax on the red meteorite is very rich, but because the color of sulfide is also red, sulfide masks the brightness and true quality of the meteorite crust.

Generally speaking, red meteorites have the following characteristics: high overall density, sufficient thickness of meteorites, hardness, basically complete molten shell, neat and even edges, larger volume compared with other colors and types of meteorites, and thicker sulfide outside molten shell than other types of meteorites, even in some areas. Inferred from the numerous gas marks and sulfides on the surface of the meteorite, the meteorite explosion was carried out at high altitude, and it was burnt and fully burned by high temperature during the falling process, so it was analyzed that there were many gas marks and sulfides. This fast meteorite has a fresh cross-section analysis, which was formed when it was hit by other meteorites during low-altitude explosion. Short combustion time, rough surface and rare sulfide.

The meteorite weighs 23 kilograms. Please look at the photo of this meteorite from all angles:

The molten shell is covered with sulfide produced at high temperature and is rich in wax.
