Meteorite: Oued Bouzdim 001, Palasite of the Eagle Station grouplet. |
Temperature plays a crucial role in the formation and decomposition of cohenite. During cooling, cohenite decomposes through re-solution and nucleation of graphite within the surrounding matrix. The decomposition rate of cohenite is dependent upon nickel content, temperature, and the time available before the cooling mass reaches 610°C. |
