Through the correlation of analytical data, the geochemical study and organic optical microscopy allows indicating the conditions and state of preservation of organic inputs dispersed in sedimentary rocks, signaling the environment and the geothermal and physical processes that affected them during the various stages post-burial evolutions. Analogously, in the organic material contained in the matrix of carbonaceous meteorites, the same conventional methodology was applied. Based on these assumptions, we observed that the insoluble organic isolate of the carbonaceous meteorite Aguas Zarcas exhibits morphography similar to secondary products resulting from intermediate processes of sedimentary thermal maturation. From the characterization of the organic profile, our article suggests a correspondence about the possible depositional, thermal and preservation conditions of the organic particles while in the parental body of origin of the cosmic fragments.
