Meteorit | Erg Chech 002 | Achondrit | 21,90 g

Product detailed description

This fascinating slice of the Erg Chech 002 meteorite is an admirable piece of history that will captivate collectors and experts alike due to its unique composition and appearance. In this specimen we find several smaller deposits of pyroxene crystals and two larger pyroxene crystals that dominate the overall structure of this slice. These distinctive pyroxenes give the meteorite an unusual appearance that is highly sought after by collectors.

In addition to pyroxenes, the composition of this meteorite includes other minerals such as olivines and quartz. This combination of minerals suggests that the meteorite came from a parent body where specific geological processes took place that contributed to its unique texture and appearance. This makes the slice not only visually appealing, but also of great scientific value for research on the early solar system.

For meteorite collectors, this fragment is a unique opportunity to own a piece of material that existed more than 4.5 billion years ago, and provides valuable insight into the conditions and processes that shaped primitive planetesimals and contributed to the formation of the solar system.
