Black Beauty rock 'is oldest chuck of Mars'



Earlier research had suggested it was about two billion years old, but new tests indicate the rock actually dates to 4.4 billion years ago. The dark and glossy meteorite, nicknamed Black Beauty, would have formed when the Red Planet was in its infancy. via Pocket http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-25016479#sa-ns_mchannel=rss&ns_source=PublicRSS20-sa
