NWA XXX Meteorite Individual 254g Northwest Africa Chondrite Meteorite Specimen

An authentic 254 gram individual specimen from the Northwest Africa (NWA) meteorite fields — one of the world's most productive and historically important meteorite recovery regions.

Northwest African meteorites are recovered across the vast desert regions of Morocco, Algeria, Mauritania, and Western Sahara, where the dry desert environment helps preserve meteorites with exceptional surface detail, fusion crust, and atmospheric sculpting.

This 254 gram individual displays the natural characteristics collectors seek in complete meteorite stones, including:

• Natural atmospheric shaping
• Fusion crust remnants
• Regmaglypts and surface texture
• Desert patina and weathering features
• Authentic extraterrestrial structure

At 254 grams, this specimen offers a substantial display presence compared to smaller collector fragments, making it ideal for:

• Meteorite collections
• Museum and educational display
• Desktop or cabinet presentation
• Planetary science collections
• Space memorabilia collections
• Photography and video display pieces

NWA individuals are especially popular among collectors because they often preserve dramatic natural exterior textures created during atmospheric entry and long-term desert preservation.
