Abstract: This paper deals with elemental composition analysis of a meteorite sample which was discovered in eastern Libya in Mlodh area at (39.97 0 N) and (7.90 0 E) coordinates. Comparisons between elemental concentrations in the meteorite sample and terrestrial rock sample were made. Results showed that the concentrations of elements in the terrestrial rock sample were much higher than the concentrations found in the meteorite sample. Determining the type of meteorite sample remains an extremely difficult matter due to many factors, explanations on these factors are discussed.
