Description

Extremely rare NWA 6704 stone achondrite meteorite slice, exhibiting a green hue with mysterious 'bubble trains' suspended in orthopyroxene. The full slice weighs 4 grams and measures approximately 36 mm x 23 mm x 2 mm. NWA 6704 is so unusual that Meteorite Times magazine described it as 'a most intriguing meteorite unlike any others known to man!' All known pieces come from a single, broken stone recovered in the Sahara in 2010 and show the rare minerals awaruite and albite. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by Geoff Notkin of Aerolite Meteorites Inc. and the TV show Meteorite Men, as well as a specimen identification card.
