No Marc these meteorites are leftovers from the formation of our solar system and give us information of the starting stuff and its origins. The simple fact that that it takes cycles of stellar nucleosynthesis to produce heavier elements than the original Hydrogen and Helium with a tiny bit of Lithium from the big bang is now well understood.
