NWA#7 – 6 kg Sahara

2400,00

A magnificent collector’s item, this unclassified chondrite was discovered in the Sahara, most likely in Morocco.

What makes this piece unique is its weight, but also the regmaglypts on its surface.

Regmaglypts are hollow indentations, often thumb-shaped, found on certain meteorites.
Entering the atmosphere slows down the trajectory of meteorites due to air friction.
This friction tears off pieces, forming regmaglypts.
