The NWA 11474 lunar meteorite is among the rarest types of space rocks. The stones are blasted off the lunar surface by asteroid impacts where most are captured by the Earth’s or Sun’s gravitational field. After spending a long time in space circling the Earth or Sun, they are captured by the Earth’s gravity and fall like other meteorites.

NWA 11474 is a very attractive consisting of mainly white feldspathic clasts set in a dark gray matrix. It has a high shock state and because of that contains some melt glass. The stones and fragments that were found were without fusion crust and only showing moderate weathering so they are beautiful when sliced and polished. NWA 11474 is a great choice for the collector seeking a piece of our nearest neighbor, the Moon.
