Abstract
The study of pristine chondrites provides insight into nebular processes that occurred prior to the accretion of small-sized parent bodies. The interchondrule matrix of the primitive chondrite Acfer 094 is characterized by the presence of submicron-sized anhydrous crystalline aggregates embedded in a silicate groundmass that is mostly amorphous. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS) were employed to investigate the matrix of Acfer 094 and its components.
