AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The meteorite of this batch is a beautiful complete piece of type 3 Chondrite, which means it has perfect chondrules, distinguishable from the matrix, despite being a complete piece. Each of the small circles represents a grain of matter from the presolar cloud, which were merging and building ever larger bodies, so this type of chondrite is a true "fossil" of the origin of the Solar System. A photograph of the early formation of our corner of the Universe in which we live.

An specimen for a great collection, with good size, shape, and in perfect condition.

Although this meteorite was found in the Sahara Desert recently in 2025, it has an estimated formation age of more than 4.5 billion years, which makes chondrites the oldest materials you can have in your hands.

An excellent opportunity to add this wonder of the universe to your collection.

We are members of the leading international associations related to meteorites, so we guarantee for life the authenticity of all our meteorites and jewelry made from this material. Buy with guarantees.
