All auctions / Ethnographical / Individual + Slice- Eucrite meteorite - achondrite from...
This lot consists of a complete specimen plus a slice, both of good size, of eucrite monomictic breccia, found in Algeria, Northwest Africa, in 2021 and classified under the official name MONT TESSALIT 001. In it we can appreciate its brecciated lithology of great beauty, with very pretty white plagioclase inclusions in the cut and polished area, as well as the natural exterior on the complete meteorite. Although it is a meteorite found in Northwest Africa, it has its own name once the exact coordinates of the place where it was found are known, something that adds value. Thanks to studies, it has been possible to verify that HED meteorites (Howardites, Eucrites and Diogenites) originate from the asteroid Vesta, so they are differentiated rocky meteorites, i.e., achondrites. Ideal lot for collectors who enjoy having meteorites as they are found and, on the other hand, to know their interior. Size and exceptional quality to add to your collection. Don’t miss this opportunity! We belong to the three main associations related to meteorites worldwide, IMCA (International Meteorite Collectors Association), GMA (Global Meteorite Association) and The Meteoritical Society, so we guarantee the authenticity of all our meteorites for life. Buy with guarantees. Best regards and our warmest wishes. CRATER METEORITES
