Description from the seller

Fragment of the Tatahouine meteorite weighing 0.84 grams. It is set in a cage-type pendant in silver-toned metal and linked to a modern 925 sterling silver chain.

Its fall occurred on June 27, 1931 near the town of Tataouine, Tunisia. It is classified as a diogenite achondrite. Studies suggest it formed in the crust of the asteroid Vesta.

Its composition is almost entirely pyroxene and is rich in magnesium.
