Laboratory Test Request

Meteorite Testing and Authentication Needed

Project Description

MULTIPLE TESTING

Looking for testing a 22kg iron-based rock, which exhibits several characteristics of a possible lunar meteorite. Based on initial testing, it shows:


  • Magnetic properties
  • Nickel presence (as per preliminary checks)
  • Minor UV fluorescence
  • Density and weight matching meteorite characteristics

Given these observations, we would like to request professional testing and authentication to confirm its origin and classification. Testing Required: Elemental Analysis (Iron, Nickel, Trace Elements), Mineral Composition Study, Structural & Petrographic Examination, Classification, & Authentication

Please provide details regarding:


  • Testing procedure & required sample size

  • Cost of analysis
  • Turnaround time for results
  • Shipping or in-person submission guidelines

Appreciate your guidance and look forward to your response.
