Rare Polymict Eucrite Meteorite (2.25" x 1.25" x 1.25") 166.7g - Sahara Desert

Absolutely stunning, large, and wildly colorful large Polymict Eucrite Meteorite. Polymict stones are EXTREMELY RARE. They are a conglomeration of different types of Vesta, all collided into one stone. Eucrite, is believed to be from the Asteroid Vesta, which had a near fatal collision with another asteroid early in the history of the solar system. Although Vesta survived, a huge amount of rock and debris was ejected into space. The ejected asteroid happened to fly through Earth's orbit, survived a fiery trip through the atmosphere, and landed in the Sahara Desert, where it likely sat for thousands of years before being discovered by nomads and brought to market.

A massive size for this type of find, weighing in at 166.7g.

This is an extremely fabulous find. Serious Collectors need to take note.
