This is a highly collectible meteorite. It is a distinct specimen of NWA 2977, a newly-discovered meteorite from the Earth's Moon. NWA 2977 was found in the Sahara Desert in 2005, and has just recently been classified. Only one meteorite weighing 233 grams was ever recovered! This meteorite probably originated in the lunar highlands environment as a thick lava flow or as a shallow intrusive into the highlands crust. The meteorite contains two pyroxenes, olivine, plagioclase shocked to maskelynite, K, Ba feldspar, and various Cr, Fe, Ti oxides. This is a unique chance to own your very own piece of the MOON!
