AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Fantastic and exceptional complete piece of Lunar Gabbro meteorite, of the fused breccia type of anorthosite. This piece has been found in the distribution field of the newly analyzed and classified lunar meteorites under the name Adrar 013, and it presents all the typical characteristics of this find, so it is a specimen paired with this classification.
Although normally lunar meteorites put up for sale are very small, the specimen we offer is a large-sized sample of this rare meteorite from our natural satellite. One of the largest that can be found on the market, in addition to having exceptional quality and a spectacular appearance.
Lunar meteorites are very scarce, making them true marvels of the universe in our hands.
An excellent opportunity to add this jewel of the universe to your collection. Size and quality worthy of a great collection or a major museum.
We are members of the leading international associations related to meteorites, so we guarantee the authenticity of all our meteorites for life. Buy with guarantees.
