NWA x Meteorite 236.98g Remarkably Regmaglypted Rock From Space

Description

Item for auction is a 236.98g individual NWA unclassified chondrite that was recently acquired. This specimen features a dark crust on a long wedge shape. Fabulous regmaglypts adorn all surfaces and is about 95% fusion crusted.
*The stone probably endured a late fragmentation event that has deposited secondary crust on two surfaces that have characteristics not unlike Thuathe. Kind of a lumpy, pseudo-regmaglyped light or immature fusion crust. Not to take anything away from it, but just the opposite. This stone displays the different morphologies of fusion crust quite adeptly and gives the viewer clues into its history. Mature, thick primary fusion crust can be seen in photo 7 - this is part of the external stone from which this specimen was liberated during a probable secondary flight fragmentation event. Immature secondary fusion crust can be seen in photos 3 and 6. In this case the stone did not travel long in ablative flight before dark flight - blobs of fusion crust are melted on the most exposed surfaces of the fragmented face. Photos 1, 2, 4, and 5 show more mature secondary crust that has smoothed out the fragmented surfaces of the rock but not as much as primary fusion crusted areas (photo 7). This is an awesome stone whose magnetic susceptibility is consistent with that of L chondrites.
I always look for the best Saharan desert material. Take a look at the pictures and see for yourself that this is not some ugly, cracked, weathered roadfill gravel that appears on ebay regularly. This meteorite was part of a lot of top quality unclassified stones I got from Morocco earlier this year, and prices are going up across the board because of scarcity, tighter borders and other issues that I won't discuss here. I don't buy junk, and don't expect you to either - I only sell what I myself would buy. This rock from space would make a splendid addition to any collection. The meteorite comes with a Big Kahuna Meteorites Certificate of Authenticity / Specimen Card. Scale cube in photo is 1cm on each side, and not included in sale.
