Own a genuine Ouargla 004 Lunar Meteorite Specimen, an exceptionally rare fragment of the Moon that travelled through space before naturally falling to Earth.
Officially recognised by the Meteoritical Society, Ouargla 004 was recovered in Ouargla Province, Algeria, during 2021. It is classified as a Lunar Feldspathic Melt Breccia, formed from lunar surface material fragmented, melted and fused together during ancient impact events.
Ouargla 004 has an officially recorded mass of just 1,046g, divided between four recovered pieces. This limited recorded mass makes it a highly collectable classified lunar meteorite.
Each specimen preserves physical evidence of the impacts that reshaped the Moon’s surface over billions of years. The exact numbered specimen selected from the variant menu and shown in the photographs is the specimen you will receive.
