Specimen Description

Rafsa 005 is an exceptionally rare plutonic angrite meteorite, representing one of the most scientifically significant classes of achondrites. Unlike the more common basaltic angrites formed from volcanic processes, plutonic angrites crystallized slowly deep within their parent body, preserving a unique record of early Solar System differentiation.

This specimen offers collectors and institutions a chance to own a piece of ancient planetary geology—material that formed over 4.5 billion years ago under conditions that no longer exist in our Solar System. With its coarse-grained texture and distinctive mineralogy, Rafsa 005 stands as a testament to the complex thermal evolution of small planetary bodies.

Key Features:

  • Plutonic angrite classification—among the rarest meteorite types
  • Coarse-grained igneous texture from slow cooling at depth
  • Museum-grade specimen with full provenance documentation
  • Certificate of Authenticity included
  • Ideal for advanced collections and institutional displays
