Campo del Cielo meteorites originate from one of the largest known iron meteorite strewn fields on Earth. They were formed when a large iron meteoroid fragmented before impact. Classified as IAB iron meteorites, these specimens represent metallic core material from an early asteroid and are highly valued for their density, structure, and geological significance.
