Very rare lunar meteorite.

Lunar achondrite meteorite NWA 15018

History:
Discovered in 2020 in Morocco, in the Témara region.

The meteorite has an irregular shape with numerous grayish fragments lacking fusion crust. It is a polymict breccia mainly composed of feldspathic and fused clasts, as well as mineral fragments consolidated by an abundant finely recrystallized feldspathic matrix. The dominant minerals are olivine, augite, pigeonite, and calcium plagioclase. Minor phases include silica, ilmenite, and FeS.

Petrography:

A magnificent extraterrestrial object that traveled through the cosmos before landing in Morocco and perhaps ending up in the palm of your hand. A specimen as rare as it is exceptional.

Fast delivery and careful packaging with a tracking number. :-) !

Seller's Story

We have been meteorite hunters for a long time. Passionate about these objects which are pieces of interplanetary space, we are delighted to be able to offer, through our collections, exceptional pieces, which everyone can obtain to have a part of the sky in the palm of their hand. Have you ever observed the Milky Way? Have you ever observed a shooting star? Have you ever wondered where this one fell? In any case, we do and were even able to collect some by hand to send them directly to your home. Each of our meteorites is unique and carefully selected before sale, cleaned, often treated, sometimes sliced and sometimes polished using specific equipment. Based in France, we provide meteorites from many different countries across the planet. These objects have traveled staggering distances to end up on our shelves and perhaps even in your home. We provide certificates of authenticity for each piece. We make it a point of honor to offer quality batches, sent carefully and quickly across Europe with a tracking number.
