Chondrite Meteorite found in the Sahara Desert, Morocco
Chondrite Meteorites are charaterized by the presence of chondrules. These are tiny drops of mineral that cooled slowly enough to crystalize.
Chondrite meteorites are stony (non-metallic) and have not been modified, by either melting or differentiation of the parent body.
Even though chondrites are the most common type of meteorite, they are still rarer than diamonds.
Chondrites originated in the asteroid belt and are thought to be the oldest objects in the Solar System, dated around 4.65 billion years ago.
Found in the Western Sahara Desert, Morocco, we believe that this Chrondite Meteorite is most likely to be classified as a L3, based on most of the material found in the area.
Type L chondrites contain about 4–10% iron–nickel. Found as a free metal, these meteorites are magnetic.
Meteorite Source
South East of Dakhla; located in the Western Sahara Desert, Morocco. Latitude and longitude coordinates for Dakhla are: 30°24'38.56"N, 9°33'20.59"W.
Meteorites were found in this area between Imlili, Aousserd and Tichla.
We visited Morocco in 2007 and visited areas where meteorites were found, but they were extremely difficult to find. In several hours we only found one small meteorite. Two images enclosed when we went fossicking for meteorites.

Cuando se realiza una oferta, este es el monto máximo que una persona está dispuesta a ofertar por el producto. Nuestro sistema ofertará automáticamente en nombre del postor y aumentará la oferta de manera gradual hasta el máximo para mantener su posición como el mejor postor.
Cuando hay un ícono que indica "Oferta automática", significa que nuestro sistema está realizando ofertas de forma activa para el postor en función de su oferta máxima. Esto puede parecer como si los postores estuvieran pujando más que ellos mismos, pero es simplemente el resultado de que el sistema actualiza la oferta para reflejar el límite máximo del postor.
