This is a superb whole specimen of the famous Northwest Africa 2965 meteorite weighing 49.85 grams. This is a beautiful specimen from the Thomas Phillips Meteorite Collection.

Its dimensions are 54x43x19 mm. This North West Africa was classified originally as an Enstatite EL6/7, then later as an EL3 and finally an EL-Melt Rock meteorite which was found along with the rest of the total mass of more than 100 Kilograms in the Algerian Desert in August 2005.  This is one of the oldest meteorites on our planet in terms of terrestrial age and has been referred to as a fossil meteorite. 

This Enstatite chondrite shock Level is minimal and weathering varies from 2 to 5. This piece displays extremely well and if cut would show a completely recrystallized enstatite chondrite with polygonal to irregular grain outlines. The grain size varies from 0.02 to 0.7 mm. Round, curved, blocky objects contain coarser-grained orthopyroxene than in the matrix. No relict chondrules were observed.

This hard to acquire piece displays very well with its prehistoric look.  As highlighted in the photos, there are grains of sand still wedged into one of the crevices of the specimen.  This rare and quality specimen would make an amazing addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with specimen card.

This is an incredible crusted end cut Northwest Africa (NWA) 400, formerly named and sold as Oum Rokba, meteorite from Morocco Western Sahara. This superb piece weights 3.65 grams and measures 25x17x6 mm. 

This H5 classified meteorite was obtained from the M. Farmer Collection.  It was bought by him in Africa in September 2000 and it was classified by UCLA.  This meteorite was comprised of several hundred complete stones, with a total weight of around 100 kilos.

This meteorite was found by a nomad a few kilometers from an Oasis named Oum Rokba, which means "Old woman's knee" in Arabic! How the oasis got that name we'll never know.  The meteorite has a distinctive, smooth exterior devoid of fusion-crust; interior has abundant metal-grains.

There is no official total known weight recorded for this meteorite.  This amazing meteorite has been classified as a H5 chondrite, with a Shock stage of 2 and weathering of 2.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Michael Farmer Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen card.
