Chondrite Meteorite Fragment 42g — Morocco

A Piece of the Solar System — 4.5 Billion Years Old

Hold a piece of deep time in your hands. This extraordinary chondrite meteorite fragment fell to Earth in Morocco and is approximately 4.5 billion years old — older than the Earth itself, formed in the earliest days of our solar system from the primordial dust and gas that would eventually become the planets.

Chondrites are the most common type of stony meteorite and are among the most scientifically significant rocks known to science. They preserve the original chemistry of the early solar system, including the characteristic chondrules — tiny spherical structures formed from rapidly cooled molten droplets in space — that give this class of meteorite its name.

• Weight: 42g

Few objects on Earth carry the weight of history that a meteorite does. This is not just a mineral specimen — it is a fragment of the cosmos itself.
