Oum Dreyga (Amgala) H3-5 Chondrite Meteorites for
Sale

Location: Gour Lafkah, Western Sahara, (24º18'N, 13º6' W)
Fell: 2003, 16 October, 02:00 UT
Type: Stone, Ordinary chondrite (H3-5)
Description: On 16 October 2003, Moroccan
soldiers stationed in Western Sahara saw a
meteorite falling on Gour Lafkah Mountains, south of
Zbayra, about 21 km from Oum Dreyga. The meteorite fell
near a 670 km long wall built in 1985, protected by
antipersonnel mines, and guarded by soldiers. About 17 kg
were recovered. Stones from this fall were later brought
to Moroccan dealers. Most of them have been collected
after a rainfall and are thus slightly oxidized. However,
some fragments have been picked up soon after the fall;
these are very fresh. Fragments have been sold under the
names Amgala and Gor Lefcah. Classification and
mineralogy (M. Bourot-Denise, MNHNP): very fresh,
with a black fusion crust; H3-5 breccia (Fa16.7±
6.0; 19.5 ± 0.8; Fs14.4 ± 4.4; 17.4 ± 1.3), S4, W0.
