This 4.28 gram specimen offers a pristine view of the Moon’s geology. Classified as a Feldspathic Breccia, it features a striking high-contrast matrix where bright white anorthositic clasts—remnants of the ancient lunar crust—are set against a darker fine-grained background. This piece perfectly illustrates the "brecciated" texture formed by meteoroid impacts on the lunar surface billions of years ago. A beautiful and scientifically significant piece that puts the raw geology of the lunar highlands directly into your hands.
