Back scattered electron (BSE) images of the cross sections of the severely heated micrometeorites (MMs) investigated in this study. a D03IB057 shows a porphyritic texture composed of a core of magnesian low-Ca pyroxene (LPx) and a kamacite (Km) inclusion. The rim is composed of ferroan olivine (Ol), Fe oxide, and glass (Gl). b D10IB170 is composed of a single olivine crystal containing many magnetite grains
