Inclusions of one type of meteorite enclosed in another have been found in several gas-rich meteorites, unequilihrated chondrites and mesosiderites. The inclusions in all but one case are chondritic; a majority are mineralogically and isotopically similar to carbonaceous chondrites. These meteorite mixtures most probably resulted from collisions among asteroids.
