Note that the number in brackets in the lot description is simply my inventory number for this lot and is not in any way a name or otherwise indicating anything about this meteorite.

* NWA METEORITE *

Unclassified NWA bought from Sahara Desert Nomads.

This meteorites in this auction has not been sent for classification and has not been named. Priced cheap.

WHAT IS A NWA METEORITE?

Meteorites are named after where they fell or were found. So if a meteorite fell near the town of Zagami Nigeria its name is Zagami. if it fell near Ensisheim Germany its name is Ensisheim and if you buy a piece of that meteorite you buy it using that name. Usually this naming system works well but over the past 5 or 6 years people have discovered you can find meteorites relatively easy in deserts. This includes poor Sahara desert nomads used to earning $200 a year who now all of a sudden can get tens of thousands of dollars for a good meteorite find. So it seems that pretty much everybody who lives in the Sahara are on the lookout for meteorites. Worthless weathering away rocks strewn throughout the desert is now being saved for the world because crazy foreigners like me will pay good money for these stones.

But you don't know where the nomads found these meteorites - so you cant give them a place name. Just from  somewhere in the desert which stretches for thousands of miles. But buyers and sellers congregate in Morocco and that's where the meteorites changes hands. That is in North western Africa (Or NWA for short). Since there are thousands of meteorites the very first NWA meteorite was named NWA001 (Which incidentally NWA001 is a number from one of my meteorites - so I have been involved in NWA meteorites for quite a while). The next meteorite is named NWA002 ect up to how ever high the numbers will go - or until the 40,000 years of meteorite falls get hunted out.  

See my other Moroccan Meteorites on ebay also. I have them started at low prices. Get a really great deal on something that actually came from outer space. Dont wait for the Sahara to get hunted out of its 40,000 year supply of meteorites to enhance your collection. Buy your meteorites now while prices are really low. 

Multiple lots can usually save on combined shipping if they are under a pound. Anything a pound or over I usually subsidize the postage so you probably wont get shipping discounts on lots weighing a pound or more. If you are buying small lightweight meteorites shipping savings for multiple lots will be significant. I dont overcharge for postage so dont have a per item fee as shipping is by weight. One kilo is $20 and $15 per kilo therafter. All prices noted here are in US dollars but I can also accept payments in Australian, New Zealand or Canadian dollars at the current exchange rate (You can use the spot rate of bloomberg so that the bank wont get a cut). Email me for instructions before you send me payment in anything other than US dollars.

 

This meteorite lot is from the DEAN BESSEY stock of meteorites. I am one of the worlds largest meteorite dealers and one of the most significant buyer of nomad found meteorites in the Sahara. Buy your meteorites from a meteorite dealer who you know that you can trust.
