Dhofar 947 Meteorite | 38.40 Gr | Quarter Stone | L5-6 Chondrite | Rare Low TKW | SO24

This is a superb looking Dhofar 947 classified meteorite weighing 38.40 grams. Its dimensions are 97x49x6 mm.

This L5-6 classified meteorite was found in Oman in 2002. The total known weight of the single piece recovered is recorded as an incredibly low 170 grams; the meteorite has a shock stage of 3 and weathering grade of 2.

This piece displays extremely well as it was professionally cut in a way to expose the interior and allow it to sit perfectly on a table.  The cut faces are polished to allow a clear view of this beautiful and rare material.  There are just over 40 kilos recorded worldwide of various classified L5-6 meteorites and you will own approximately a quarter of this rare find that is the Dho 947.

This will be a high end addition to any new or existing collection. This specimen will come with a Canagem Collection specimen card and the original specimen card from the Carsten Giessler Collection (GipoMeteorites).
