NGC 6025 is a moderately young cluster with an age between 40 and 69 Myr. The cluster is metal-rich compared to the Sun; more so than the Hyades cluster. Seven spectroscopic binary star systems have been identified. Only one blue straggler has been found among the members, along with two Be candidates.
