Tanezrouft 091 is a classified Mesosiderite, a rare type of stony-iron meteorite composed of silicate rock and metallic nickel-iron. Discovered in the Tanezrouft region of Algeria in 2020, this specimen is a striking representation of the complex geological history of asteroidal bodies.
Mesosiderites are believed to have formed through violent collisions between differentiated asteroids, creating a brecciated structure that merges metal and silicate in a singular form. Tanezrouft 091 showcases these features beautifully, with a metallic-lustrous matrix interspersed with crystalline inclusions.
This specimen is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity from the International Meteorite Collectors Association (IMCA), the Global Meteorite Association (GMA), and The Meteoritical Society, ensuring its authenticity and provenance. A valuable addition to any serious meteorite collection, it is suited to both collectors and academic institutions.
