Unit price perOut of stock
Estimated delivery between 31 December and 05 January.
This is a fantastic lot of crusted individual NWA (Northwest Africa) 869 L3-6 classified meteorites, found by Nomads in the Sahara Desert in 2000. The total weight of the lot is 8.1 grams. These three specimens display a superb crust on most of their surface.
Most samples are individual meteorites but some fragments (mostly >1 kg) also occur. In most cases the fusion crust has been polished or ablated by wind erosion. Many samples are more severely affected and show faces with deep wind erosion features. Fracture faces, formed by ground collision, show a typical gray-green color and sometimes visible brecciation (light and/or dark clasts).
These specimens come from the Hupé Collection and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
