Description from the seller

Agoudal Meteorite – Fe IIAB – Morocco

The Agoudal meteorites are among the most remarkable and relatively rare discoveries of the early 21st century. Identified for the first time in 2000 in the Moroccan High Atlas, they were officially recognized and classified on April 27, 2013 as iron meteorites of the IIAB type, a category prized for its structure and cosmic origin.

This lot comes directly from the Agoudal region, located at an altitude of over 2,000 meters. We personally acquired it during an on-site expedition in March 2026, right in the heart of the strewn field, guaranteeing authentic and direct traceability.

The fall produced a large quantity of fragments, ranging from a few grams to several kilograms, for a total estimated mass of over 100 kg. Most specimens are irregularly shaped nodule fragments, typically between 2 and 5 cm, with an irregular form. They are often coated with a thin alteration crust, while some more compact fragments retain a well-developed fusion crust, characteristic of an intense atmospheric passage.

These meteorites offer a rare balance between accessibility and scientific authenticity, while remaining relatively uncommon on the market. Their origin, classification, and collection method make them prized pieces, for both demanding collectors and enthusiasts of extraterrestrial minerals.

Authentic piece – direct provenance – natural cosmic material.

METEORS KINGDOM.

Seller's Story

We have been meteorite hunters for a long time. Passionate about these objects which are pieces of interplanetary space, we are delighted to be able to offer, through our collections, exceptional pieces, which everyone can obtain to have a part of the sky in the palm of their hand. Have you ever observed the Milky Way? Have you ever observed a shooting star? Have you ever wondered where this one fell? In any case, we do and were even able to collect some by hand to send them directly to your home. Each of our meteorites is unique and carefully selected before sale, cleaned, often treated, sometimes sliced and sometimes polished using specific equipment. Based in France, we provide meteorites from many different countries across the planet. These objects have traveled staggering distances to end up on our shelves and perhaps even in your home. We provide certificates of authenticity for each piece. We make it a point of honor to offer quality batches, sent carefully and quickly across Europe with a tracking number.
