This is a Parcel or Lot of individual Northwest Africa (NWA) 4293 meteorites, formerly known as NQ10, an H6 chondrite found in the Sahara Desert in 2005. The meteorite lot weighs over 100 grams. Dimensions of the individuals vary between 16 and 40 mm with weight between 4 and 5 grams.  

This fascinating meteorite was mainly found as small individuals and the total weight of the 100's of pieces recovered is recorded as a low 25 kg.  The meteorite has a shock stage of 4 and weathering grade of 2.  Most pieces are free of caliche, have a smooth gray surface and are small complete individuals.  The unusual appearance is due to shock hardening and being sandblasted in the desert.

The one-centimeter cube in the image is for scale purposes.  These fantastic looking individuals would be great for passing around a classroom, for jewelry making or as small gifts to those who are interested in meteoritics.  What better way to share your enthusiasm for meteorites with others?  This lot comes with a Hupe Collection and a Canagem specimen cards.  Would make a beautiful addition to any collection or start one today.

All specimens are authentic with all provenance information provided.

Certificate of Authenticity, Specimen Information Cards and/or Appraisals are provided when applicable.
