The Erg Chech 002 meteorite , or EC 002 for short , was discovered in May 2020 in the Erg Chech region of the Sahara in south-western Algeria (Adrar Province). It has a mass of 31.78 kg and is classified as an ungrouped achondrite. Its metamorphic age (geology) and crystallisation age are estimated at 4.566 billion years. It is believed to be a fragment from the crust of a small protoplanet dating from the formation of our solar system.
Its composition resembles terrestrial andesite, a rock also known as islandite, which, as a volcanic rock, belongs to the magmatic rock group. The meteorite is therefore considered to be the oldest known volcanic or even basaltic rock on Earth (as of 2021). (Source: Wikipedia)
