NWA 8552 Enstatite EL6 Chondrite Meteorite - G562-0076 - 0.02g - COA - 300 CLUB

Description: Hello and thank you for viewing my listing. Today you are purchasing a part slice of a rare classification, NWA 8552 Enstatite EL6 Chondrite Meteorite from Northwest Africa. Most excellent meteorite, 90% enstatite, 10% plagioclase and no chondrules were observed in the microprobe section that was analyzed. This meteorite classification, EL6, has only 124 classifications known to date, pretty low number considering. Been quite a while since I had time to get this one out to the collector market, enjoy. Excellent addition to your collection. THE 300 CLUB IS A NEW CATEGORY I HAVE MADE. IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION LAST YEAR THAT A LOT OF MY CLASSIFICATIONS, ESPECIALLY THE OLDER ONES FROM 2006 AND ON, WON'T EVER HIT 300 IN SPECIMENS MADE AVAILABLE. I WILL BE STARTING AT MY FIRST CLASSIFICATIONS AND GOING THROUGH THEM ONE BY ONE THIS YEAR AND FIGURING OUT HOW MANY WILL MAKE IT TO THE 300 CLUB AND HOW MANY WILL KEEP GOING BEYOND THAT. A LOT OF THIS DEPENDS ON THE ORIGINAL WEIGHT CLASSIFIED IN THE BEGINNING, MAKING THEM MUCH MORE RARE AND VERY LOW NUMBERS. SOME SPECIMENS WILL BARELY MAKE IT TO THE 100 CLUB. I HAD NO IDEA YEARS AGO THAT I WOULD DO THE TUCSON AND DENVER SHOWS FOR 10 YEARS AND THEN BIG UNIVERISITIES WOULD GOBBLE UP LARGE SPECIMENS MAKING MY WEIGHTS GO DOWN VERY FAST WITH SOME OF THESE CLASSIFICATIONS. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THIS SECTION, WHEN THEY ARE GONE, THEY ARE GONE. ALL SPECIMENS COA'S WILL BE MARKED 076 OF 300 ETC FROM HERE ON OUT ALSO. THE ORIGINAL CARDS WITHOUT THAT STATEMENT I WOULD ASSUME WILL BECOME MORE COLLECTIBLE. METEORITES ARE ALL ABOUT COLLECTIBILITY AND PROVENANCE AND I'M A RECORD KEEPING FOOL OF MY COLLECTION. I'VE CREATED A LIBRARY TO MY LEFT, LOL. CHEERS! DATA: THERE HAVE ONLY BEEN 67 SPECIMENS SOLD TO DATE OF NWA 8552. ALL SPECIMENS WILL BE MUCH SMALLER IN SIZE DUE TO THE WEIGHT LEFT AVAILABLE. I WILL RETIRE THIS NWA NUMBER AT THAT POINT. THERE IS ALSO A FEW ORIGINAL COA CARDS LEFT, AFTER THOSE ARE GONE, I WILL REDISIGN A NEW CARD MENTIONING THE 300 SPECIMENS WAY OF DOING THINGS NOW, LOL. THANK YOU. WAS THAT TOO MUCH TO DIGEST??? LOL. My catalog number is G562-0076 and weighs in at 0.02 grams and comes with my card of authenticity for provenance. Remember, provenance is a must when collecting meteorites. I have designed a COA for NWA 8552, as I do with all of my classifications. The specimen you see pictured is the exact specimen you will receive. Each card comes with catalog number, weight and my signature of authenticity. Thanks again for viewing. Cheers! Thanks again for viewing and my shipping is like this, the first is usually only $4.79 and .50 cents for each additional item, unless over 60 grams, then 1.00 per item. Everyone is given the opportunity to shop for two full weeks without ever exceeding 10.00 shipping, no matter how many you win or buy over the two-week period, even earth stones! Cheers and thanks again for stopping by.
