LUNAR METEORITE - ASH SHAQQAH 002 FOR SALE

Ash Shaqqah 002 is a lunar meteorite classified as a troctolitic anorthosite. The first meteorite was collected on October 10, 2024, when a group of Libyan falconers searching for birds north of the Jaghbub Oasis, near the Libyan–Egyptian border, spotted an unusual 12 kg brownish stone along the roadside and decided to take it with them. Once it was confirmed to be a lunar meteorite, they returned to the area with others and began recovering additional pieces. In the weeks that followed, many more specimens were collected, including the largest with a mass of 48.8 kg, bringing the total known weight to 329 kg from a strewn field roughly 5 × 3.5 km in size. The stones exhibit brown, desert-weathered surfaces without fusion crust, while cut sections reveal a brecciated interior ranging from gray to brown, with some clasts showing scattered reddish-orange crystals.
