Did you know that Meteorites can be up to 2 billion years old?
The NWA 869, found in North West Africa in the year 2000 (NWA 869), is a chondrite meteorite. It's been described on Aerolite.org as "geologically one of the more interesting stone meteorites available to collectors and has been described as a 'meteorite science classroom in a single rock.'"
The chemistry of the NWA 869 meteorite is interesting. It's a fragmented breccia, meaning that it's composed of fragments of various meteorite types. Internally, it's a matrix full of colors and chondrules when cut or sliced. Flecks of meteoritic metal—iron and nickel—are usually easily visible.
A terrific addition for amateur rock collectors of all ages! Each piece is unique, and will slightly vary in size, shape and colour.
