More Details About the Miller Range 07393 Meteorite
The Miller Range 07393 meteorite was discovered in 2007. It was recovered in Antarctica (0.0, 0.0). It has a mass of 11.8 grams.
Miller Range 07393 is considered a “Valid” meteorite. “Valid” meteorites are typical meteorites with average weathering, while “relict” meteorites are those that have been extremely altered, either due to weathering over time or human intervention.
Miller Range 07393’s official classification is EH3. The “EH3” classification refers to an enstatite chondrite from the high-iron EH group, identified as petrologic type 3, known for its small chondrules and a composition rich in silicon-bearing metal. Characterized by a highly reduced mineral assemblage, including unique minerals like niningerite and perryite, these meteorites exhibit abundant chondrules, minimal water alteration, and unequilibrated mineral structures, including distinct low-calcium pyroxene grains.
The Miller Range 07393 meteorite is a “Found” meteorite. Meteorites are classified as “falls” if they were observed falling and recovered, while “finds” are those discovered later, often weathered by longer exposure to Earth’s environment and without a record of being seen as they fell.
