Abee, Enstatite, impact-melt, chondrite
An exceptionally beautiful and rare Canadian Meteorite

The parent bodies of many meteorites - SNC's (Mars), achondrites (Vesta), lunar (Moon) are known. The parent body for this rare class of meteorites, enstatite chondrites is not.

On June 10, 1952 one of this rare class of stone meteorites fell in Alberta, Canada. Analysis has shown that this meteorite, Abee, is unlike all other enstatite chondrites. It's brecciated structure (large clasts of 2 cm to 15 cm ) indicates that "Abee" is from the surface of it's unknown parent body.

This slice is 83.2 grams with fusion crust along the curved surface. It has been carefully prepared and polished on both sides in our lab to vividly display Abee's unique bi-modal brecciated structure.

Offered, 83.2 grams, 82mm x 68mm x 6mm $ 4,650.00
