Location: Northwest Africa, exact location unknown.

Found: 2022

Classification: Carbonaceous chondrite (CK5)

Description: History: Purchased by Eric Twelker in June 2022 from a dealer in Agadir, Morocco. Petrography: (A. Irving, UWS and J. Boesenberg, BrownU) Separated, well-formed glass-free equilibrated chondrules containing stained Cr-magnetite are set in a fine grained matrix (~40 vol.%) containing Cr magnetite (orange-stained in thin section), augite, intermediate to calcic plagioclase, pentlandite and chlorapatite. Geochemistry: Olivine (Fa_32.1±0.3, range Fa_31.7-32.7, N = 10), augite (Fs_9.9±0.4Wo_44.7±2.4, range Fs_9.4-10.4Wo_40.0-46.1, N = 6), low-Ca pyroxene (Fs_26.3±0.0Wo_0.7±0.1, range Fs_26.3±0.0Wo_0.7-0.8, N = 2), plagioclase (An_35.2Or_4.2; An_64.7Or_1.2; N = 2), magnetite (Cr₂O₃ 4.7-6.3 wt.%, N = 6).
