Description

A nicely shaped Agoudal iron meteorite with natural patina as found.

They have been officially named Agoudal - also marketed under the name "Imilchil"
These Iron meteorites have a thick coating of weathering on them which has developed over a long period of time
and actually provides some protection to the metal beneath
 

The first fragment of this meteorite was harvested by a nomad.. Shortly after many pieces of this meteorite came into the Laboratory of the University Ibn Zohr. Immediately a systematic search for meteorites was conducted in an area of 500 × 500 meter squares around the impact craters in the areas indicated by the villagers, especially around the villages of Tasrafet and Agoudal.
