North West Africa 869
The most widely available meteorite found in the Sahara is Northwest Africa 869 (NWA 869). First discovered in the year 2000, this chondrite has yielded about 2 tones of specimenes so far. NWA 869 is particularly interesting, as it is composed of fragmented breccia. When cut or sliced, an internal matrix full of colors and chondrules is exposed. These slices have many bits and flecks of reflective meteoritic metal.
