AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A truly exceptional specimen — a natural heart-shaped Eucrite meteorite, beautifully formed and full of cosmic charm.
Eucrites are basaltic achondrites, originating from the crust of asteroid Vesta, one of the largest bodies in our solar system’s asteroid belt. Their composition and structure are strikingly similar to lunar rocks — a true piece of another world!

Origin: Asteroidal (likely from Vesta)
Type: Eucrite
Weight: 7830g
Shape: Naturally Heart-Shaped – a rare and romantic form sculpted by nature itself.
Features: Fine fusion crust, brecciated texture, light and dark mineral contrast.
Significance: Eucrites are among the oldest rocks known — over 4.5 billion years old!

This heart-shaped space rock is not just a meteorite — it’s a symbol of cosmic love and timeless beauty, perfect for collectors, gift-givers, or anyone who admires the wonders of the universe.

Comes with a certificate of authenticity (if available).
A perfect addition to any fine meteorite collection.
