08909 - Fragment 1.279 g NWA Monomict Eucrite Achondrite with Fresh Fusion Crust Meteorite Dactylocephalus A slice of the interiorBeautiful fragment of this Eucrite monomict achondrite with nice fresh dark fusion crust. Eucrites are achondritic stony meteorites, many of which originate from the surface of the asteroid 4 Vesta and as such are part of the HED (Howardite, Eucrite, Diogenite) meteorite clan. They are the most common achondrite group with well over 100 distinct finds at present. The authenticity of this specimen is guaranteed by the geologist Juan Avils Poblador,
