This is a fragment of the meteorite - NWA 3140
It was found in Morocco in 2004.

This is a VERY rare type of meteorite.
One of the interesting aspects of a Ureilite is that it is an incredibly hard substance.
Meteorite dealers trying to cut Ureilites have often given up in disgust as they can end up with floor filled with broken saw blades.
Due to the huge forces the meteorite has been subject to in its traumatic existence it sometimes ends up with tiny nano- diamonds in the matrix. It is these tiny diamonds that helps destroy the blades!

A Ureilite is a rare type of stony meteorite that has a unique mineralogical composition very different from that of other stony meteorites. This dark grey or brownish meteorite type is named after the village Novy Urey , Mordovia Republic of Russia, where a meteorite of this type fell on 4 September 1886.

You will receive a signed certificate of authenticity as well as an A4 full colour meteorite information sheet.
