183,31 $

Nwa 13512 is an Aubrite meteorite discovered in Morocco near Boudnib in 2019.

I this date only 72 meteorites of this type have been classified.

It is a rare type of meteorite, difficult to find on the market.

The name Aubrites is linked to the fall of a meteorite in Aubres, France in 1836. They are composed mainly of orthopyroxene to enstatite.

History : Three visually-similar specimens (total weight 105 g)

found together near Boudnib, Morocco were purchased by Mohammed Hmani in December 2019.

Petrography: (A. Irving, UWS and P. Carpenter, WUSL) The specimen has a mean grainsize of ~400 µm and is composed predominantly of equant grains of enstatite with subordinate sodic plagioclase and accessory altered Si-bearing kamacite, altered Cr-troilite and schreibersite.

Geochemistry: Enstatite (Fs0.2±0.0Wo0.6-0.7, N = 3), plagioclase (Ab91.4An2.6Or6.0; Ab76.4An21.4Or2.3; N = 2), kamacite (Si = 1.5 wt.%, Ni = 7.9 wt.%).

Classification: Aubrite.

Specimens: 20.5 g including one polished thin section at UWB; remainder with Mr. M. Hmani.

Writeup from MB 111:

Jdiriya 005 27°33’23.45″N, 10°31’29.87″W

Saguia el Hamra, Western Sahara

Find: 2018

Classification: Enstatite achondrite (Aubrite)

History: Found by Brahim Ikken in 2018. Bought By Jean Redelsperger from Mohamed Elguirah in 2021.

Physical characteristics: Several irregular dark pieces.

Petrography: (J. Gattacceca, B. Devouard, CEREGE) Coarse-grained unbrecciated rock with granular texture made up primarily of enstatite (61 vol%) with typical grain size 5mm. No relict chondrules are observed. Other silicates are sodic plagioclase (3.6 vol%) with typical gain size 700 μm, and Si-rich glass. Opaque minerals (35 vol%), under the form of mm sized rounded grains, are all weathered except Zn-rich daubreelite that makes up 0.2 vol% of the meteorite.

Geochemistry: Enstatite Fs0.3±0.2Wo0.6±0.1, CaO 0.33±0.06 (n=6). Plagioclase An6.7±0.1Ab89.7±0.1Or3.6±0.1 (n=3). Daubréelite contains up to 6 wt% Zn.

Classification: Aubrite.

Specimens: Type specimen at CEREGE. Main mass with Jean Redelsperger.
