Plus vieille que la terre !
Permanent exhibition
Musée cantonal de géologie
The small pieces of white mineral in this carbonaceous chondrite meteorite were formed 4,559 billion years ago, before our planet came into existence. Infinitely slowly, these witnesses to the beginnings of our world combined with other dusts to form a meteorite – which has ended up before your eyes, here in the Musée de Géologie.
