Found 2017 A.D.. A rare eucrite meteorite slice recorded as: Northwest Africa 11576; displayed in a Swiss membrane box, inked inscription ' NWA 11576' to one edge. 20 grams, 38 mm (76.3 grams total, 99 x 75 mm including case) (1 1/2 in. (3 7/8 x 3 in.)). Eucrites are achondritic stony meteorites thought to have originated from the surface of the giant asteroid (or minor planet) 4 Vesta. Vesta is the second largest body in the asteroid belt, with a mean diameter of 525 kilometres. Like Earth, it has the differentiated layers of crust, mantle, and core common to rocky planets: this may mean that 4 Vesta is the remnant of a larger destroyed planet.From North West Africa (Mali). Ex SV-Meteorites, Prague. From a Leicestershire, UK, collection. Accompanied by an original identification card. [No Reserve]
Found 2008 A.D.. A cut slice of scarce achondrite from the diogenite group recorded as: Northwest Africa 5480; displayed in a Swiss membrane box. 11.7 grams, 48 mm (58 grams total, 99 x 75 including case) (1 7/8 in. (3 7/8 x 3 in.)). The total known mass of the meteorite found in Mali was 4.91 kg. Mineralogically, the diogenites are primarily composed of magnesium-rich orthopyroxene, with minor amounts of plagioclase and olivine. The pyroxenes are usually coarse-grained, suggesting a cumulate origin for the diogenites in magma chambers within the deeper regions of Vesta's crust. The achondrites of this group are named after a 5th century B.C. Greek philosopher Diogenes of Apollonia, who was the first to suggest that meteorites originate from outer space.From the Sahara, N.W. Africa. Ex Hupe collection, U.S.A. From a Leicestershire, UK, collection. [No Reserve]
