AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Meteorite name: Bechar 003
Type: lunar
Weight: 2.4 grams
Place of discovery: Algeria
Condition: Natural, unpolished, exactly as found

This specimen is a lunar breccia meteorite, derived from materials characteristic of the lunar crust, rich in feldspar, mainly plagioclase, and associated with anorthositic regions of the Moon's surface.

With a weight of 2.4 g, this is an authentic and representative sample of lunar material, scientifically documented. Lunar feldspar breccias are formed by consolidated fragments from ancient impacts, making them direct testimonials to the Moon's intense geological history.

This type of meteorite is especially valued by specialized collectors and for educational and scientific purposes, due to its confirmed extraterrestrial origin and its relevance to the study of the Moon's early evolution.

The piece is kept in natural state, without polishing or artificial treatment, fully preserving its original characteristics.
