Description of obverse and reverse
A brief annotation
The meteorite Hammadah al Hamra 280 (HAH 280) was found in the
year 2000 in Jabal al Gharb in the Hammadah al Hamra region in Libiya. As a so-called carbonaceous chondrite the HAH 280 is classified in the very rare CK4 group. The scientific analysis, which are about 700 million years older than our 4,5 billion year old solar system, confirm the evidence.
