Лот 40 | THE NORTON COUNTY AUBRITE – A WITNESED FALL FROM 1948
The surface, sporting regmaglypts and fusion crust, with original label from the Institute of Meteoritics, University of New Mexico, specimen number N23-5a.

Highly sought-after by both researchers and collectors, aubrites represent just 0.1% of all meteorites. There are only 9 witnessed aubrite falls, a list that includes some of the more prominent and difficult-to-obtain meteorites known: Aubres, Cumberland Falls, Khor Temeki, Mayo Belwa, Bustee, Bishopville, Shallowater, Peña Blanca Springs and Norton County.
Very rare offering in this size with regmaglypts and crust.

Christie's would like to thank Dr. Alan E. Rubin at the Department of Earth, Planetary, and Space Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles for his assistance in preparing this catalogue.
85 mm x 65 mm x 35 mm (31/3 x 21/2 x 11/3 in.)
