Hello and thanks for looking. This super nice individual fell near the Gour Lafkah Mountains, Western Sahara on October 16, 2003, south of Zbayra, around 20 or so km from Oum Dreyga.
It has about 70% black primary crust with nice looking contraction cracks on most of the black crust and this piece did hit the ground right after breaking up, thus the lighter areas with no crust! It also has a neat spot of metal that is raised from the surface "as it is harder than the surounding area" that measures about 3mm x 2mm! It is a classified H3 - H5 CHONDRITE and this was a very small fall with only about 17 kg recovered! Early on other pieces of this fall have been sold under the names of Amgala and Gor Lefcah. Please check out the meteorite dealer prices per gram on this beautiful and rare fall, thanks again.
It measures 80mm x 60mm x 45mm or about 3 3/16" x 2 3/8" x 1.75" at its biggest and it weighs 252 grams!
