NWA 7325 #3 Ach Ung Paired – 0,08 g
172,40 $NWA 7325 is a very rare ungrouped achondrite meteorite.
Anthony Irving, a meteorite specialist at the University of Washington in the United States, analyzed this meteorite. The results are surprising since according to him, NWA 7325 could not come from Mars, nor from the Moon but from the planet Mercury.
But this is only a theory at this point.
Nevertheless this meteorite of an intense green color is unique !
