Full of iron inclusions. NWA 16401, newly classified meteorite - 22.1 g

Chondrites are called so because they contain chondrules. Chondrules were molten droplets of silicates in space that accreted together with some free metals to form the first asteroids 4550 million years ago. They are older than the Earth. NWA 16401 has been recently published as a new H6 chondrite meteorite. It was bought in Morocco in April 2023 from a local meteorite dealer. In this lot a slice is offered. Certificate of authenticity is included. IMCA 5591. Packages are usually sent the morning after the auction. Shipping is combined in all my listings - if you win multiple items, only one shipping cost is paid. Do not miss this opportunity!
