Kaba meteorite

The stone, intact when found, must have weighed almost 4 kg (7 lbs), but was mutilated by the locals in the hope of finding precious metals.

Finally, a few days later, thanks to Kaba's magistrates, the meteorite, still weighing almost 3 kg, was taken to the Debreceni Református Kollégium, where József Török, a teacher of natural history, was the first expert to handle it.

On 7 June 1858, at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, he gave a thorough description of it and presented a three-page drawing of it, based on photographs by Emmanuel Mariotte.

[5][6] The stone is still kept in the museum of Debreceni Református Kollégium Múzeuma, and its fragments can be found in about twenty places around the world, including Kolkata, London, Vienna, Moscow and Washington.

Since 2009, the probable site of the burial has been commemorated by a memorial stone along a dune road near kilometer 193 of Highway 4.

In oxidized CV3 (ox)A-type Allende, nepheline, sodalite, wollastonite, and andradite and grossular garnets are also found.

This process was carried out in the oxidized Bali-type with a higher degree of aqueous metamorphism, which was subsequently subjected to thermal stress, and is evidenced by the presence of phyllosilicate, fayalite, magnetite, and sulphide in the fabric.

CAIs (calcium-alumina inclusions) are the oldest mineral outcrops in the Solar System, with an age of 4.567 gigaannum (Ga), or 4.567 billion years (Allende measurement).

The laminated fabric structure was measured at Eötvös Loránd University on a sample of Kaba meteorite from the 13 December 1995 cut-off.

[11]In the autumn of 2017, an international conference was held at the Debreceni Református Kollégium on the latest results of research on the Kaba meteorite.
