Here we have for you a superb looking Dhofar 020 classified meteorite weighing 82.14 grams. Its dimensions are 70x32x32 mm.  Found 10 March 2000 in Dhofar, Oman, in the Arabian Peninsula this H4/5 classified chondrite has a TKW of 256 Kg with a shock stage of S4 and weathering grade of W3 by the Russian Academy of Sciences, USSR.

The following is an excerpt from Mark Bostick's review of this meteorite:  "Dhofar 020 is a ordinary stone chondrite meteorite. The meteorite is high in free metal and therefore falls in the H class. S4 tells it is highly shocked. Slices of the meteorite, show veins of the cosmic impact created mineral Ringwoodite, although fractures in the stone tend to hide this some. It almost appears to me to have splinted upon impact. The meteorite falls in 4-5 petrology class, a reference to how metamorphed the meteorite is from its original state. This is judged by studying a thin section of the meteorite, most visually at the chondrules, a feature unique to stone meteorite. In a thin section under polarized light, pyroxene chondrules seem more common then their olivine pair. Still some regions in the meteorite show scattered patches of bright olivine inclusions. These are fairly rare, at least on my thin section, and most of the meteorite's olivine and pyroxene, some of the easier things to see in a thin section, appear to have went through a metamorphism, and have "melted" into the matrix and are at times undistinguishable."

This piece displays extremely well showing a beautiful crust, superb shape and good size. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

The lunaites of this group comprised of Dho 908 and Dho 911 are from a very old meteorite fall, which can be recognized at the outer realm and the non existing melting crust. In the cut it shows however, that this lunaite is very fresh inside, maybe a result of the very high density of the material. It consists of a homogenous impact-melting glass in which are included a multitude of optically and scientifically very interesting clasts- brownish impact-melting, partially with very big white anorthite clasts, dark shock veins, as well as reddish and dark clasts of rare lunar stones (troctolites and norites)

This piece displays extremely well and is a very desirable type. This quality piece would make a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a specimen card and a signed Certificate of Authenticity.
