Scientific paper

Silicate inclusions and impact metamorphic features in the El'ga meteorite, found in 1958 at Yakutia, are discussed. The chemical composition (oxides and number of cations per element scaled on the basis of six and eight oxygens) of the primary minerals forming the inclusions (K-Na-feldspar, clinopyroxene, and others) was determined. Changes were observed in the meteorite with features of shock metamorphism typical for iron meteorites.
