Description from the seller

TARDA is a meteorite that fell in Morocco on August 25, 2020.
This meteorite was classified as an ungrouped C2, a rare type of very primitive carbonaceous meteorite.
Tagish Lake is a meteorite of the same type and sells for more than 1,000 euros per gram.
This meteorite is made up of many tiny fragments, and attractive specimens with fusion crusts are rare.
Isotopic analyses show that some specimens have values close to CI chondrites, while others have Yamato-type (CY) values.
A meteorite of major scientific importance in the years to come.
