Eucrite 57,27 g
Oriented meteorite of the asteroid Vesta, eucrite-type

Achondrite-type meteorite, a particularly well-oriented eucrite with a bright fusion crust very well preserved in its shield shape. Meteorite measuring 40 x 35 x 20 mm for 57.27 g, comes with a polished brass holder. This type of meteorite has been associated, following spectral analyses of the surface of asteroids, with one of the largest of them, known as Vesta. Eucrites are rare and sought-after, even more so when oriented like this specimen. Automatically translated by DeepL. To see the original version, click here.
