Own a genuine Timimoun 002 Diogenite Meteorite Polished Slice, an exceptionally rare meteorite formed deep within the crust of a differentiated asteroid during the earliest history of our Solar System.

Officially recognised by the Meteoritical Society, Timimoun 002 was recovered in Adrar Province, Algeria, in 2024 and approved in 2025. Classified as a Diogenite, this remarkable meteorite belongs to the prestigious Howardite–Eucrite–Diogenite (HED) group, which is widely believed to have originated from asteroid 4 Vesta.

Each polished slice reveals the meteorite's natural mineralogy and crystalline texture, allowing collectors to appreciate features that are often hidden within raw specimens. The exact numbered specimen shown in the photographs is the meteorite you will receive.
