Les autorit\u00e9s nig\u00e9riennes ont annonc\u00e9 enqu\u00eater sur la r\u00e9cente vente d’une m\u00e9t\u00e9orite d\u00e9couverte dans le pays, estimant qu’il pourrait s’agir d’un trafic international illicite.<\/p>\n
Le Niger a annonc\u00e9 l’ouverture d’une enqu\u00eate sur la vente d’une m\u00e9t\u00e9orite martienne d\u00e9couverte dans ce pays d’Afrique de l’Ouest en 2023.<\/p>\n
Cette roche, le plus gros fragment de Mars jamais d\u00e9couvert sur Terre, a \u00e9t\u00e9 vendue pour plus de 5 millions de dollars lors d’une vente aux ench\u00e8res \u00e0 New York la semaine derni\u00e8re.<\/p>\n
Dans un communiqu\u00e9 diffus\u00e9 \u00e0 la t\u00e9l\u00e9vision publique, le gouvernement a indiqu\u00e9 avoir charg\u00e9 les ministres des Mines, de l’Enseignement sup\u00e9rieur et de la Justice d’enqu\u00eater sur cette affaire qui, selon lui, \u00ab pr\u00e9sente probablement les caract\u00e9ristiques d’un trafic international illicite \u00bb.<\/p>\n
Avec ses 25 kilogrammes, cette m\u00e9t\u00e9orite rouge, brune et grise est environ 70 % plus grande que le deuxi\u00e8me plus gros fragment de Mars d\u00e9couvert sur Terre et repr\u00e9sente pr\u00e8s de 7 % de l’ensemble du mat\u00e9riel martien actuellement pr\u00e9sent sur la plan\u00e8te, selon la maison de ventes Sotheby’s, qui a dirig\u00e9 la vente.<\/p>\n
Elle a \u00e9t\u00e9 d\u00e9couverte par un chasseur de m\u00e9t\u00e9orites dans la r\u00e9gion d’Agadez, au Niger, en novembre 2023.<\/p>\n
