Looking for a rare and fascinating addition to your meteorite collection? Consider adding this 124 grams fragment of Northwest Africa 14410 (NWA 14410) to your inventory. This HED achondrite (Eucrite, brecciated) meteorite was purchased in August 2021 from a reputable dealer in Ouarzazate, Morocco. It is composed of fourteen light grayish fragments partly covered with fusion crust, making it an eye-catching display piece. Eucrites are a type of basaltic Achondritic meteorite that are thought to originate from the asteroid Vesta, one of the largest objects in the asteroid belt. Vesta is believed to have undergone differentiation, with a metallic core, a rocky mantle, and a thin regolith layer on the surface. Eucrites are thought to represent the surface material of Vesta and have a unique mineralogical and chemical composition. The meteorite NWA 14410 is a fragmental breccia made up of up to 2mm sized basaltic clasts set into a clastic matrix. It also contains predominantly up to 1.5mm sized exsolved pyroxene and calcic plagioclase grains, as well as minor phases such as silica, chromite, ilmenite, troilite, and zircon. There is no metallic iron in this meteorite. The detailed physical characteristics and petrography of NWA 14410 make it a unique and intriguing addition to any meteorite collection. You will also receive a signed Certificate of Authenticity with your purchase, so you can be confident that you are getting a genuine meteorite. Two separate fragments were found on the ground in the desert. After checking them they fit perfectly, probably they broke apart in the air during the fall or after hitting the ground. So I decided to join them again with glue.
