Habaswein and south of Sericho, Kenya. There are no rocks in this area, so they decided they were meteorites. They spent several weeks collecting them with engine hoists and moving them to their homes in Habaswein. Though recognized as meteorites in 2016, the masses had been known to camel-herders for decades. One village elder said that as a child, he and his brothers would play on top of the stones. In early January 2017, Michael Farmer received an email showing a photo of “giant pallasite” weighing 107 kg. He traveled to Nairobi and purchased this stone. Two weeks later he returned to Kenya with Moritz Karl and traveled to Habaswein. Here they were shown more than one ton of specimens stacked in the courtyards of two house compounds. To date, more than 2800 kg has been found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e: To date, masses ranging from \u0026lt;1 to 500 kg have been found in a strewnfield \u0026gt;45 km long, starting several km west of Habaswein and south of Sericho in Isiolo County. The smaller pieces were found nearer to Habaswein, but still in Isiolo County. The villagers continue to find pieces, mostly on the surface. The majority of the pieces are \u0026gt;50 kg. The meteorites found on the surface show minimal weathering, with patches of fusion crust on the metal. Most stones are blocky, exhibiting a few broad regmaplypts. Several flight-oriented specimens were found, including a 129 kg and two 16 kg stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePetrography\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slices from several stones show similar metal\/olivine ratio, averaging near 70 areal% olivine and \u0026lt;1 areal % chromite. One 15 × 21 cm slice shows regions with ~95 areal% olivine. Olivine grains are largely rounded, less commonly euhedral, and gemmy green to orange. Grains are typically 0.5 to 1 cm across, though a few range up to 4 cm. One slice shows a 5-cm cruciform-shaped chromite. Metal is dominated by swathing kamacite around the olivine, with pockets of dark-etching plessite. Rare metal-rich regions show well-developed Widmanstätten pattern.

Habaswein and south of Sericho, Kenya. There are no rocks in this area, so they decided they were meteorites. They spent several weeks collecting them with engine hoists and moving them to their homes in Habaswein. Though recognized as meteorites in 2016, the masses had been known to camel-herders for decades. One village elder said that as a child, he and his brothers would play on top of the stones. In early January 2017, Michael Farmer received an email showing a photo of “giant pallasite” weighing 107 kg. He traveled to Nairobi and purchased this stone. Two weeks later he returned to Kenya with Moritz Karl and traveled to Habaswein. Here they were shown more than one ton of specimens stacked in the courtyards of two house compounds. To date, more than 2800 kg has been found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e: To date, masses ranging from \u0026lt;1 to 500 kg have been found in a strewnfield \u0026gt;45 km long, starting several km west of Habaswein and south of Sericho in Isiolo County. The smaller pieces were found nearer to Habaswein, but still in Isiolo County. The villagers continue to find pieces, mostly on the surface. The majority of the pieces are \u0026gt;50 kg. The meteorites found on the surface show minimal weathering, with patches of fusion crust on the metal. Most stones are blocky, exhibiting a few broad regmaplypts. Several flight-oriented specimens were found, including a 129 kg and two 16 kg stones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePetrography\u003c\/strong\u003e: Slices from several stones show similar metal\/olivine ratio, averaging near 70 areal% olivine and \u0026lt;1 areal % chromite. One 15 × 21 cm slice shows regions with ~95 areal% olivine. Olivine grains are largely rounded, less commonly euhedral, and gemmy green to orange. Grains are typically 0.5 to 1 cm across, though a few range up to 4 cm. One slice shows a 5-cm cruciform-shaped chromite. Metal is dominated by swathing kamacite around the olivine, with pockets of dark-etching plessite. Rare metal-rich regions show well-developed Widmanstätten pattern.

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed.

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed. Minor opaque phases are ilmenite and chromite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeochemistry\u003c\/strong\u003e: (C.

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed.

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed.

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed. Minor opaque phases are ilmenite and chromite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeochemistry\u003c\/strong\u003e: (C.

This is not a flaw but rather a feature of the meteorite. This meteorite was found in the Western Sahara by locals and purchased there by D. Dickens and his partner while on expedition in 2015.

They likely originated as cumulates within localized magma chambers (plutons) situated across Vesta's lower crust and the lower-crust\/upper-mantle transition zone. While the eucrites represent more evolved plagioclase rich mafic upper to middle zone crustal material. The howardites were formed by impact mixing of the diogenitic and eucritic material both in situ and during ejection events.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe HED meteorites are so named for the three types of meteorites that comprise the group; Howardite, \u003cstrong\u003eEucrite \u003c\/strong\u003eand Diogenite. The Eucrite and Diogenite are meteorites with distinct chemistries, while the Howardite is a mix of the eucritic and diogenitic material. The HEDs are differentiated achondritic meteorites, thought to originate from the large differentiated asteroid 4 Vesta. Vesta is one of the only asteroids visible with the naked eye and low powered telescopes.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Vesta parent body origin for the HED clan of meteorites is considered to have been conclusively established for many years. However, the late Dr. John Wasson, a planetary science researcher from UCLA had long held that the HED meteorite clan originated from another unknown Vesta-like asteroid that was blown apart long ago. This is because we also find a class of iron meteorites with nearly identical oxygen isotopes as the HED clan. This along with other research lead Dr. Wasson to conclude the HED clan of meteorites come from another differentiated V-type asteroid that was in a cataclysmic collision liberating part or all of its metal core along with the HED meteorites.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHowever, this hypothesis does not necessarily rule out the possibility that a \"reaccreted\" Vesta and the smaller V-type asteroids collectively known as Vestoids along with the HED meteorites and the isotopically paired irons were all once part of a much larger dwarf planet prior to a massive collision with another large body. While most researchers consider the case mostly closed on this debate, the paradox of isotopically paired core metal raised by Dr. Wasson's hypothesis has not been resolved. This leaves some to speculate that perhaps we still have more to learn about this fascinating clan of achondrite meteorites and even Vesta itself.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePendant with center stone fashioned from the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eNWA 10962 Eucrite HED meteorite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and set in 925 Sterling Silver\u003c\/span\u003e, membrane storage\/display box, \u0026amp;

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed.

The megacrysts appear to be shock-mosaicized or recrystallized with a significant amount of dark and light inclusions present, some of the observed inclusion veining in the megacysts is possibly maskelynite. The compositions of the plagioclase megacrysts are slightly more anorthitic than the groundmass plagioclase fragments, although there is compositional overlap between the two that is within microprobe error. This is possibly a monomict breccia since the section analyzed had only one coherent population of pyroxenes and olivines that appear to be related by equilibrium igneous crystallization. The olivine and pyroxene compositions are similar to that in ferroan anorthosites. Shock melt veins with vesicles were observed.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e. Much later, perhaps thousands of years later, an even smaller fraction of the meteorites that didn't fall into the oceans or onto unrecoverable terrain, are recovered by nomads and others who happen to find them.

Secondary calcite is present pervasively in one of the two specimens studied and in places may be replacing original glass. Olivine grains in both studied specimens have been partially replaced by inhomogeneous phyllosilicate-rich assemblages, which apparently are hydroxylated (as evidenced by systematically low oxide analytical sums of 88-90 wt.% and absence of measurable F and Cl), and which are very Mn-deficient (yielding very elevated FeO\/MnO ratios in the range 150-250).

Both are samples of the same breccia material, composed of mineral clasts of anorthite, olivine, pigeonite, subcalcic augite, augite and orthopyroxene, plus sparse lithic clasts of spinel troctolite, set in a fine grained microvesicular matrix containing accessory altered kamacite, troilite, taenite and pentlandite. Secondary calcite is present pervasively in one of the two specimens studied and in places may be replacing original glass. Olivine grains in both studied specimens have been partially replaced by inhomogeneous phyllosilicate-rich assemblages, which apparently are hydroxylated (as evidenced by systematically low oxide analytical sums of 88-90 wt.% and absence of measurable F and Cl), and which are very Mn-deficient (yielding very elevated FeO\/MnO ratios in the range 150-250). Troctolitic clasts are composed predominantly of anorthite and olivine with accessory Cr-pleonaste, low-Ca pyroxene and\/or higher-Ca pyroxene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeochemistry\u003c\/strong\u003e: Olivine (Fa\u003csub\u003e17.3-32.1\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 76-100, N = 15), anorthite (An\u003csub\u003e95.4-99.0\u003c\/sub\u003eOr\u003csub\u003e0.2-0.0\u003c\/sub\u003e, N = 7), pigeonite (Fs\u003csub\u003e18.2-26.8\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e12.4-4.7\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 47-54, N = 6), orthopyroxene (Fs\u003csub\u003e16.0-21.6\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e2.2-3.7\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 51-66, N = 4), subcalcic augite (Fs\u003csub\u003e15.9\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e31.0\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 41), augite (Fs\u003csub\u003e7.6-7.9\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e42.9-45.6\u003c\/sub\u003e; Fs\u003csub\u003e13.8\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e38.9\u003c\/sub\u003e; FeO\/MnO = 36-48, N = 3).

Both are samples of the same breccia material, composed of mineral clasts of anorthite, olivine, pigeonite, subcalcic augite, augite and orthopyroxene, plus sparse lithic clasts of spinel troctolite, set in a fine grained microvesicular matrix containing accessory altered kamacite, troilite, taenite and pentlandite. Secondary calcite is present pervasively in one of the two specimens studied and in places may be replacing original glass. Olivine grains in both studied specimens have been partially replaced by inhomogeneous phyllosilicate-rich assemblages, which apparently are hydroxylated (as evidenced by systematically low oxide analytical sums of 88-90 wt.% and absence of measurable F and Cl), and which are very Mn-deficient (yielding very elevated FeO\/MnO ratios in the range 150-250).

Secondary calcite is present pervasively in one of the two specimens studied and in places may be replacing original glass.

Both are samples of the same breccia material, composed of mineral clasts of anorthite, olivine, pigeonite, subcalcic augite, augite and orthopyroxene, plus sparse lithic clasts of spinel troctolite, set in a fine grained microvesicular matrix containing accessory altered kamacite, troilite, taenite and pentlandite. Secondary calcite is present pervasively in one of the two specimens studied and in places may be replacing original glass. Olivine grains in both studied specimens have been partially replaced by inhomogeneous phyllosilicate-rich assemblages, which apparently are hydroxylated (as evidenced by systematically low oxide analytical sums of 88-90 wt.% and absence of measurable F and Cl), and which are very Mn-deficient (yielding very elevated FeO\/MnO ratios in the range 150-250). Troctolitic clasts are composed predominantly of anorthite and olivine with accessory Cr-pleonaste, low-Ca pyroxene and\/or higher-Ca pyroxene.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeochemistry\u003c\/strong\u003e: Olivine (Fa\u003csub\u003e17.3-32.1\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 76-100, N = 15), anorthite (An\u003csub\u003e95.4-99.0\u003c\/sub\u003eOr\u003csub\u003e0.2-0.0\u003c\/sub\u003e, N = 7), pigeonite (Fs\u003csub\u003e18.2-26.8\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e12.4-4.7\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 47-54, N = 6), orthopyroxene (Fs\u003csub\u003e16.0-21.6\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e2.2-3.7\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 51-66, N = 4), subcalcic augite (Fs\u003csub\u003e15.9\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e31.0\u003c\/sub\u003e, FeO\/MnO = 41), augite (Fs\u003csub\u003e7.6-7.9\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e42.9-45.6\u003c\/sub\u003e; Fs\u003csub\u003e13.8\u003c\/sub\u003eWo\u003csub\u003e38.9\u003c\/sub\u003e; FeO\/MnO = 36-48, N = 3).

They likely originated as cumulates within localized magma chambers (plutons) situated across Vesta's lower crust and the lower-crust\/upper-mantle transition zone. While the eucrites represent more evolved plagioclase rich mafic upper to middle zone crustal material. The howardites were formed by impact mixing of the diogenitic and eucritic material both in situ and during ejection events.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe HED meteorites are so named for the three types of meteorites that comprise the group; \u003cstrong\u003eHowardite,\u003c\/strong\u003e Eucrite and Diogenite. The Eucrite and Diogenite are meteorites with distinct chemistries, while the Howardite is a mix of the eucritic and diogenitic material. The HEDs are differentiated achondritic meteorites, thought to originate from the large differentiated asteroid 4 Vesta. Vesta is one of the only asteroids visible with the naked eye and low powered telescopes.\u003cstrong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eThe Vesta parent body origin for the HED clan of meteorites is considered to have been conclusively established for many years. However, the late Dr. John Wasson, a planetary science researcher from UCLA had long held that the HED meteorite clan originated from another unknown Vesta-like asteroid that was blown apart long ago. This is because we also find a class of iron meteorites with nearly identical oxygen isotopes as the HED clan. This along with other research lead Dr. Wasson to conclude the HED clan of meteorites come from another differentiated V-type asteroid that was in a cataclysmic collision liberating part or all of its metal core along with the HED meteorites.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eHowever, this hypothesis does not necessarily rule out the possibility that a \"reaccreted\" Vesta and the smaller V-type asteroids collectively known as Vestoids along with the HED meteorites and the isotopically paired irons were all once part of a much larger dwarf planet prior to a massive collision with another large body. While most researchers consider the case mostly closed on this debate, the paradox of isotopically paired core metal raised by Dr. Wasson's hypothesis has not been resolved. This leaves some to speculate that perhaps we still have more to learn about this fascinating clan of achondrite meteorites and even Vesta itself.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003ePendant with center stone fashioned from the \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNWA 11899 Howardite HED meteorite\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e and set in 925 Sterling Silver\u003c\/span\u003e, membrane shipping\/storage box, \u0026amp; signed Certificate of Authenticity.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e* .925 Sterling Silver chain is available.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTop Meteorite offers a 100% no questions asked 30 day return policy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eSEE OFFICIAL METEORITICAL SOCIETY ENTRY BELOW\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tablefat\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"4\" id=\"maintable\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ccaption\u003e\u003c\/caption\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"insidehead\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNorthwest Africa 11899\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003eBasic information\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eName:\u003c\/b\u003e Northwest Africa 11899\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e     This is an OFFICIAL meteorite name.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbbreviation:\u003c\/b\u003e NWA 11899\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eObserved fall: \u003c\/b\u003eNo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear found: \u003c\/b\u003e2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCountry: \u003c\/b\u003eMali \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMass:\u003cimg alt=\"help\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lpi.usra.edu\/meteor\/qmark.gif\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e 16 kg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003eClassification\u003cbr\u003e  history:\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\n\u003ctable summary=\"used for layout\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eRecommended:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHowardite\u003c\/b\u003e   \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThis is 1 of 356 approved meteorites classified as Howardite.   [show all]\u003cbr\u003eSearch for other: Achondrites, HED achondrites, and Howardites\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003eComments:\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003eApproved 31 Aug 2018\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWriteup\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"writeup\"\u003e\n\u003cbig\u003e\u003cu\u003eWriteup from MB 107:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/big\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorthwest Africa 11899\u003c\/strong\u003e (NWA 11899)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBIndent\"\u003eMali\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBIndent\"\u003ePurchased: 2017\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBIndent\"\u003eClassification: HED achondrite (Howardite)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory\u003c\/strong\u003e: Purchased by Dustin Dickens from Nomad in Mali.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e: Many identically appearing pieces.

Early neolithic tribes used the readymade glass to knapp tools, and later the Egyptians valued the golden glass so highly, it was frequently used as the centerpiece in royal jewelry. The location and existence of the glass was lost to history, until it was rediscovered in 1932 by P. Clayton while he was on expedition to survey the area. The glass is now sold by a small group of meteorite dealers and collectors, but is generally not available for purchase outside of these niche markets. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get:\u003c\/strong\u003e Libyan desert glass and sterling silver pendant and earring jewelry set as shown, and Certificate of Authenticity signed by Top Meteorite's Curator of Collections.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eWe offer a 100% no questions asked 30 day return policy.  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Top Meteorite","offers":[{"title":"with .925 Sterling Silver 18\" Round Chain (1.7mm diameter)","offer_id":44231799701729,"sku":"LIBYANGLASSSET23_01with18","price":175.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"with .925 Sterling Silver 22\" Round Chain (1.7mm diameter)","offer_id":44231799734497,"sku":"LIBYANGLASSSET23_01with22","price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1185\/2762\/files\/LIBYANGLASSSET23_01bcopy_7ffebd2a-0b42-46d6-835a-59c9428c373a.jpg?v=1763071829"},{"product_id":"luna-plata-i-lunar-meteorite-jewelry-i-pendant","title":"Luna de Plata I Lunar Meteorite Jewelry I Pendant","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLuna de Plata  Pendant\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eThe “\u003cem\u003eLuna de Plata”\u003c\/em\u003e Center Stone:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand shaped Lunar Meteorite.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e. Much later, perhaps thousands of years later, an even smaller fraction of the meteorites that didn't fall into the oceans or onto unrecoverable terrain, are recovered by nomads and others who happen to find them.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e. Much later, perhaps thousands of years later, an even smaller fraction of the meteorites that didn't fall into the oceans or onto unrecoverable terrain, are recovered by nomads and others who happen to find them.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e. Much later, perhaps thousands of years later, an even smaller fraction of the meteorites that didn't fall into the oceans or onto unrecoverable terrain, are recovered by nomads and others who happen to find them. Nothing short of miraculous odds. To describe them as rare, is perhaps an understatement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you get:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e14K Gold Pendant with genuine lunar meteorite center stone, as shown, and double sided color 5\"x7\" signed Certificate of Authenticity.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eTop Meteorite offers a 100% no questions asked 30 day return policy.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSEE OFFICIAL METEORITICAL SOCIETY ENTRY BELOW\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"tablefat\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"4\" id=\"maintable\" border=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003ccaption\u003e\u003c\/caption\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003cth colspan=\"2\" class=\"insidehead\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eNorthwest Africa 12592\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003eBasic information\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eName:\u003c\/b\u003e Northwest Africa 12592\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e     This is an OFFICIAL meteorite name.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbbreviation:\u003c\/b\u003e NWA 12592\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eObserved fall:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eNo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eYear found:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCountry:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003eAlgeria\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMass:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e1420 g\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003eClassification\u003cbr\u003e  history:\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\n\u003ctable summary=\"used for layout\" cellspacing=\"0\" border=\"0\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMeteoritical Bulletin:  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e  \u003ca\u003e  \u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e(2020)  \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLunar (frag. breccia)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cb\u003eRecommended:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e    \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLunar (frag. breccia)\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e   [explanation]\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003eThis is 1 of 7 approved meteorites classified as Lunar (frag. breccia).   [show all]\u003cbr\u003eSearch for other:\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLunar meteorites\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003eComments:\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003eApproved 15 May 2019\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr valign=\"top\"\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\u003cbig\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWriteup\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/big\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd class=\"inside\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"writeup\"\u003e\n\u003cbig\u003e\u003cu\u003eWriteup from\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eMB 108:\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/big\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNorthwest Africa 12592\u003c\/strong\u003e (NWA 12592)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBIndent\"\u003eAlgeria\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBIndent\"\u003ePurchased: 2017\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBIndent\"\u003eClassification: Lunar (frag. breccia)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHistory\u003c\/strong\u003e: A single weathered stone lacking a fusion crust was found by nomads in Algeria and purchased by Dustin Dickens in Nouakchott, Mauritania in 2017 from an anonymous meteorite dealer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MBNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePhysical characteristics\u003c\/strong\u003e: Dark grey sandblasted exterior, with many irregular shaped fragments set in a fine grained vesiculated groundmass.

This is evidenced by the millions of craters that cover the moon's surface. Thankfully the bombardments have slowed down considerably in the last few hundred thousand years, but they still do occur from time to time. Lunar meteorites are material ejected from our Moon's surface when it gets hit by a meteorite. If the impact has enough energy, some of the ejecta gets thrown so far it escapes the Moon's gravity becoming meteoroids hurtling through space. Some of those lunar meteoroids have the potential to eventually fall into Earth's gravity well and go screaming through the atmosphere to hit the surface. Once they hit the Earth's surface, they earn the designation of being a \u003cem\u003emeteorite\u003c\/em\u003e. Much later, perhaps thousands of years later, an even smaller fraction of the meteorites that didn't fall into the oceans or onto unrecoverable terrain, are recovered by nomads and others who happen to find them. Nothing short of miraculous odds.
