Lahmada 020 Lunar Meteorite End Cut Lunar (feldspathic breccia) Saguia el Hamra, Western Sahara - ((27° 24' 40"N, 9° 50' 42"W) Found: 2018 Found in Western Sahara in 2018, the meteorite Lahmada 020 represents a feldspathic breccia, and it is, of course, a lunar example. Weighing 691.5 grams, this glorious end cut is simply attractive. One sizable polished face shows the muted composition inside the rock from space and the rough exterior as a mountainous planetary texture. The piece is rather substantial and a most unusual example of a Moon rock that is an ideal collector specimen. The blend of green, gray, and taupe hues throughout the rock provides a visually-stunning offering that represents an uncommon feldspathic regolith melt breccia. The smooth window face evidences both a fine-grained composition as well as significant colorful clasts. Measurements: 5.22 x 3.11 x 2.69 inches (13.26 x 7.91 x 6.82 cm), weighs 691.5 grams HID09710052018 © 2022 Heritage Auctions | All Rights Reserved
