NWA 11667 is firstly classified as a chondrite meteorite. Chondrites are called so because they have chondrules, tiny spheres that are considered the first solid material of the Solar System. They also have tiny but visible particles of iron.

It is sub-classified as an enstatite meteorite. Enstatite chondrites are a rare, comprising only 2% of the total chondrites known. They tend to be high in the mineral enstatite, hence their name. With only 0,01% of their weight in the form of water, they are the driest naturally occurring objects in the Solar System. It has been suggested that their parent body could be the 16-Psyche, an asteroid orbiting the Sun between Mars and Jupiter.

Only 682 grams of NWA 11667 are known to exist. This is a nice opportunity to own a rare type of meteorite that moreover is classified in the Meteoritical Bulletin. It was bought to a Moroccan dealer in November 15th, 2018 in Morocco. 

Weight is 17,8 grams. 
Shape: polished slice.

Certificate of authenticity included. Shipping combined in all my listings.
