It is a nice dark gray color and is full of small holes (the small black specks in the pictures). It is very similar to Kimble County except a bit darker. The single piece was found in the desert in 2000 and has a total mass of only 370 grams and was classified as an L6 by UCLA. It is shock level 4 (very high) and weathering grade W2 (Low). It is highly vesiculated from a shock event.

This is a superb looking Stony-iron or Mesosiderite class C classified meteorite named Northwest Africa NWA 1879 .  This specimen is a part slice weighing 4.16 grams with dimensions of 22x17x4 mm.

This is a quote from Mr Hupé : "This is the NWA 1879, a rare C type Mesosiderite found in 2003 in Northwest Africa. This stony-iron type meteorite is beautiful because it is very fresh, has crystal clusters scattered throughout its matrix and has a great deal of elemental metal. NWA 1879 weighed 1,624 grams before preparation. About 31% was lost during cutting and polishing. There are several pairings to this meteorite in existence so the Total Known Weight (TKW) is unknown.

No expense was spared in the preparation of this meteorite. It was cut using a diamond blade in oil so that the silicates would not be plucked. When cutting this way the blade had to be redressed constantly to prevent the iron from loading up the cutting medium. It was coarse polished using a diamond lap, which needed the same treatment as the blade. It was then soaked in pure ethyl alcohol for days to extract the oil introduced during the cutting and polishing phases. A final dry polish was applied by hand, a very time consuming process. The final step was to clean it again with pure ethyl alcohol and dry it under a heat lamp providing great looking and stable specimens. This specimen comes with an identification card from The Hupé Collection."

This part slice displays extremely well and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes protected in a gem jar with both a Canagem Collection and a The Hupé Collection specimen card.
