NWA 12731 is a rare and fresh rumuruti type R5 weighing only 29 grams.
The R chondrite group does not clearly belong to any of the major chondrite classes (ordinary, carbonaceous, enstatite); R chondrites have sub-solar Mg/Si and refractory/Si ratios, oxygen isotopic compositions that are above the terrestrial fractionation line and ordinary chondrites, and strongly oxidized mineralogy.
The first R chondrite, Carlisle Lakes, was found in Australia in 1977.
The main mass (19.5 g) of this meteorite is for sale, the rest was used to make the classification.
NWA 6419 is an ordinary chondrite of type LL3 of 339 grams, it was discovered in the Sahara in 2010.
This piece offered for sale is very representative of ordinary chondrites with nice chondrules, it is also the main mass of NWA 6419.
Ordinary chondrites are made of small balls called chondrules that have accumulated together.
SAH 99159 is an ordinary chondrite of type LL3, it was discovered in the Sahara in 1999 at the beginning of the prospection of meteorites in the deserts.

A total of 1600 kg, ranging in mass from << 1 to 35,000 g, and a single 83 kg individual completely covered with regmaglyptes, were found in the Kamil impact crater in Egypt. This 45 m diameter crater was discovered by an Italian-Egyptian geophysical team in February 2009 and February 2010. Approximately 800 kg of the total mass observed in the field (including the regmaglypted individual) was recovered.
Agoudal is an iron meteorite which has the particularity to have its ellipse of fall at the same place as the first known impact structure in Morocco in the High Atlas.
The meteorite NWA 7034 is an exceptional meteorite.
Other stones of the same type have been found in the fall ellipse.
It is a Martian meteorite, certainly the rarest and most scientifically interesting meteorite ever found. It was discovered by meteorite hunters in the Western Sahara.
It is the oldest rock from Mars ever discovered, it contains more water than any other known Martian meteorite. Its texture is brecciated, it is composed of an agglomerate of rocks of which each rock tells us a fascinating story.
