The Allende meteorite is a CV3 carbonaceous chondrite that fell over the Mexican state of Chihuahua in February 1969. It contains calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, refractory components that formed during the earliest stages of the Solar System and rank among its oldest dated solid materials. The la...
Why this score
Canonical CV3, abundant CAIs, huge scientific literature, major early solar system benchmark.

Vigarano is a CV3 carbonaceous chondrite meteorite that fell near Vigarano Mainarda, Italy, in 1910. It gives its name to the CV, or Vigarano-type, group and contains chondrules, metal, and abundant calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions. These refractory inclusions are among the oldest dated solids forme...
Why this score
Type CV chondrite, CAI-rich, foundational carbonaceous group reference with high research value.

Efremovka is a reduced CV3 carbonaceous chondrite found in Kazakhstan in 1962. It contains well-preserved chondrules and calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, among the earliest solids known to have formed in the Solar System, as well as presolar grains inherited from material predating it. These compon...
Why this score
Well-preserved CV3 with CAIs and presolar grains, important but not widely famous.

Leoville is a CV3 carbonaceous chondrite found in Kansas and assigned to the reduced subgroup of CV meteorites. It contains chondrules, calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, metal, and fine-grained matrix that retain evidence of early Solar System processes. Its comparatively limited thermal and aqueous...
Why this score
Reduced CV benchmark with preserved CAIs, strong research use, lower public profile.

Kaba is a carbonaceous chondrite meteorite that fell near Kaba, in present-day Hungary, in 1857. It is classified as a CV3 chondrite and is associated with the oxidized portion of the CV meteorite group, preserving primitive minerals and fine-grained material from the early solar system. Researchers...
Why this score
Historic CV fall with organics, useful oxidized subgroup reference, moderate consensus prominence.

A CO3 carbonaceous chondrite that fell near Grozny, Russia in 1861, it is among the reference specimens for the CO chondrite group and contains abundant small chondrules.
Why this score
CO reference specimen, primitive components, recognized but less central than Ornans.

A CV3 carbonaceous chondrite that fell in New Zealand in 1908, it is a key reference sample for the oxidized subgroup of CV chondrites.
Why this score
Important oxidized CV reference, notable fall, respected but overshadowed by Allende and Vigarano.

Axtell is a CV3 carbonaceous chondrite meteorite found near Axtell, Texas, in 1943. Like other CV chondrites, it contains conspicuous chondrules and calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions, among the earliest solids formed in the Solar System. Its petrologic type 3 designation indicates that its original m...
Why this score
CV3 with large chondrules and CAIs, useful sample, modest fame.
ui.x_scoring_methodologyFrequently Asked Questions
What leads the CV3 ranking?
Allende currently leads the CV3 results with a displayed score of 9.20/10. This is an editorial ranking result for the items included on this page, not a universal verdict for every use case.
How should I read the score and confidence label?
The 0 to 10 score is Lunoo's ranking judgment. Strong confidence means 10 or more recorded comparison checks, some means 2 to 9, and provisional means fewer than 2.
What supports this ranking?
Lunoo combines category fit, feature coverage, pricing and value signals, public reception, recency, and peer comparisons. Public source links support factual item details when available, but they are not required for membership in this 8-item ranking.
Can I compare the leading results for CV3?
Yes. The comparison links put adjacent leaders side by side so you can inspect differences that one ranking score cannot capture.
