The first find consisted of three main pezzi, and additional fragments were discovered at the same site in later years. The total known weight today is 67.6 kg.\nStructure and Appearance\nThis stony-meteorite ferroso is characterized by a remarkable structure in which iron-nickel metallic alloys alternate with olivine crystals. These olivines are often transparent with a green-yellow hue and form irregular inclusions in the metallic matrix. This contrast gives the Springwater meteorite its striking visual appearance.\nOrigin and Significance\nMineralogically, Springwater belongs to the so-called main group of pallasites, which represents the most numerous, yet still very rare category of these meteorites. It is believed that pallasites formed at the boundary between the metallic core and the silicate mantle of planetesimals—early bodies of the solar system that never reached planetary size.\nThanks to its origin, internal structure, and relatively small total weight, the Springwater meteorite remains a valuable object of study. Today, samples are part of several major collections, including the Canadian Museum of Nature and prestigious university collections.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PeltramMinerals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58027641143621,"sku":"MESW26","price":235.02,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/1659\/2965\/files\/69043_photoroom-20260203-214803.jpg?v=1779377496","url":"https:\/\/moldavite.it\/products\/meteorite-pallasite-springwater-3g-canada-mesw26","provider":"Moldavite.it","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
