Murchison Carbonaceous Chondrite CM2 Meteorite Cut Fragment .328

Murchison is one of the most sought-after meteorites on the market today.  It's also one of the most studied meteorites in history.  One reason for this is because scientists found around 70 amino acids as well as water molecules within this meteorite.  In January of 2020, cosmochemists reported that the oldest material found on Earth to this day are the silicon carbide particles from the Murchison meteorite.  Those have been determined to be 7 billion years old which is about 2.5 billion years older than the age of our Earth and the solar system.  September 28th, 1969, at around 10:45am, a fireball was seen. It broke into three pieces before it disappeared.  After that, a cloud of smoke was seen and 30 seconds later a tremor was felt.  This happened near Murchison, Victoria in the county of Australia. 

The weight of this piece is .328 grams.

The measurements are about 11x7x6mm.
