Jdiriya 005 is an Aubrite meteorite of only 35.6 grams, discovered by Brahim Ikken in 2018 in Morocco.
A new theory carried by a French scientific team talks about the possibility of a link between the Aubrites and the planet Mercury.
To date only 76 such meteorites 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.

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.
