Meteorite NWA 15406  L6 chondrite

The Meteorite NWA 15406 is an exceptional specimen of an L6 chondrite, a type of stony meteorite characterized by its low iron content and highly metamorphosed structure. Discovered in Northwest Africa (NWA), this meteorite is part of a remarkable lineage of cosmic fragments that have journeyed through space for millions of years before landing on Earth.

L6 chondrites are known for their distinct features, including a heavily recrystallized matrix and minimal chondrules due to thermal metamorphism, offering valuable insights into the early solar system. NWA 15406 stands out for its scientific and aesthetic qualities, with a fusion-crusted exterior and a well-preserved interior displaying its chondritic composition.

This piece is ideal for collectors and researchers, representing both a tangible piece of space history and a window into planetary formation. Owning NWA 15406 means holding a genuine artifact from beyond our world, embodying the mystery and wonder of the cosmos.
