Description
NWA 869 is one of the most famous meteorites. It is thought that by mass, it is the largest chondritic meteorite in the world with over 2 tons of recognized material. However, systematic data has not been obtained to prove it.
When cut, NWA 869’s texture is heterogeneous as it is classified as an L3-6 chondrite. In the same piece, amazing chondrules can be seen (in the type 3 parts) with brecciated areas.
In this lot several pieces are offered. They have remnants of fresh fusion crust on the surface.
Certificate of authenticity included. IMCA 5591.
