Description
Meteorites are rocks from space that enter a planet's atmosphere and reach its surface. They are the result of incomplete combustion in the atmosphere of meteoroids – pieces of iron and rock of various sizes, resulting mainly from asteroid collisions. The Agoudal (or Imilchil) meteorite is a class IIAB nickel–iron meteorite that fell approximately 40,000 years ago near the town of the same name in Morocco. Researchers believe it created the two famous lakes, Islit and Tislit, in the Atlas Mountains. Its composition is Ni 5.5 wt%, Co 4.1 mg/g, Ga 58 μg/g, Ir < 0.04 μg/g and Au ~ 1 μg/g.
