Hello List, Juvinas seems to be a meteorite that is hard to find info on. ??
Strange! There are several tens of scientific publications on this typical eucrite since 1821 (see Catalogue of Meteorites). Ask Bernt for a listing... Over the 91 kg collected, there is still an impressive pumpkin sized piece in Paris Museum (I saw it), with amazing freshness: highly glossy fusion crust and sparkling disseminated metal flakes, no traces of oxidation... A lot of museums have pieces of several 100g. The place of fall is SE Massif Central, in the Ardèche region. Juvinas is a very small mountain village, country of chestnuts, goat cheese and trouts, granitic basement toped by volcanoes among the most recent in France (40-80 ka). Great place to visit!
