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.
