Scientific paper

A stony meteorite, chondrite was found about 15 km west of the city of Nitra in Western Slovakia near the village of Rumanova. The Rumanova meteorite is a one-piece 4.3-kg stone with an evident degree of weathering. The meteorite is classified as an H5 chondrite with distinct chondrules consisting mostly of olivine and pyroxene, kamacite, taenite and troilite. The kamacite shows Neumann bands and in some parts is replaced by the secondary mineral goethite.
