AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In this lot we auction a spectacular full slice of exceptional quality and size of Mesosiderite meteorite officially classified under the name TANEZROUFT 091 (TNZ 091), being one of the largest and best quality you can find in the world.

Mesosiderites are metal-rock meteorites just like pallasites, but unlike them their origin is different: they are the result of a collision between two bodies of different nature in space (one rocky and one metallic). Thus, we can see metal and rock intermeshed in a hypnotically beautiful combination.

The slice we auction is cut with diamond wire, achieving a large surface with light weight. It has one polished mirror-like face and the other unpolished after cutting. We strive to offer the best slices on the market. A fantastic specimen worthy of a great collection or museum. Do not miss this opportunity!

All our meteorites come with an IMCA certificate (International Meteorite Collectors Association), GMA and The Meteoritical Society, associations to which we belong, which guarantees the authenticity of all our meteorites for life. Buy with guarantees.

Regards and best wishes.
