LARGE Boxed Sikhote Alin Meteorite

Weight - 18.10 grams
Measures 2.8cm across

This is a beautiful Sikhote Alin Meteorite.

It is a lot heavier than most I offer, and a good shape too.

The Sikhote Alin fall in Siberia 1947 was a huge and devastating impact and left a huge number of beautiful iron meteorites behind.

There is a rapidly dwindling supply of these legendary meteorites. I have been many months before finding a new supply and these aren't expected to last long. Snap one up now - while you still can!

This is a lovely fragment recovered from the site - and is packed with character. When holding it you will find it very easy to imagine the huge forces that must have accompaned the fireball as it entered Earth's atmosphere then collided with the Siberian forest! 
Many fragments were even found embedded in trees..!!

Campo Del Cielo Iron Meteorite

Weight - 2.162 grams
Measures - 1.3cm across


This is a super little Campo Del Cielo iron meteorite.
This is from a well known fall in Argentina.
No-one knows exactly when it fell but it is thought to be between 4000 and 6000 years ago.

The first record of the Campo was in 1576. A Spanish governor learned of the iron from the Indians who reportedly believed that it had fallen from heaven. The governor sent an expedition under the command of one Captain de Miraval who brought back a few pieces of a huge iron mass he called Meson de Fierro (large table of iron).

The location of the find was the Campo del Cielo (field of the sky or heaven), a fitting name for the location of a meteorite. Since the Indians believed that the irons fell from heaven the name may have come from the meteorites. The area is an open brush-covered plain that has little water and no other rocks--very good country in which to locate meteorites.

The next record of Campo Del Cielo meteorites was about 200 years later in the late 1770s. The Spanish thought some pieces might be silver ore, but once they tried to process it, they found that it was only iron. A Spanish navy lieutenant excavated one specimen which he believed weighed 14 to 18 tons. This may have been the Meson de Fierro. He left he mass in place and it was not seen again--or was it?

Stunning Nantan Iron Meteorite Pyramid

An unusual and highly collectable genuine meteorite pyramid

Measures - 2.5 x 2cm

This is a super item and consists of a polished section of the Nantan meteorite which has been skilfully encased in yellow resin.

It is labelled on the bottom so whoever inspects it will know exactly where the meteorite comes from.

This is a truly legendary meteorite fall. The meteorite was a HUGE iron meteorite fall in China in 1516
There are stories that the Chinese people were short of iron at one point and the Government decreed that people should go out in the streets and collect whatever iron they could find to be melted down to make pots and pans.
Apparently much of the iron that was found and used was actually iron  from this meteorite fall!
They had no idea then of it's origins.... 

The fragment inside  weighs about 2 grams but I can't be exactly sure as  I didn't make the pyramid.

Meteorite Spheroids - Canyon Diablo - Arizona USA

ULTRA RARE!

Weight of sample - 0.093 Grams
Each spheroid measures less than a millimetre

This is a very unusual meteorite item.

A huge meteorite created the MASSIVE impact that created Meteor Crater in Arizona USA.
When the impactor hits the Earth  and causes the devastation, one of the results is that part of the iron impactor ends up being converted to tiny tiny spheroids.

It's a lot of work to find these. It takes hours to find and collect them. ..

A majority of the iron meteorite vaporized at impact and fell over a 5 mile radius as molton iron rain drops.    90% of the meteorite became spheroids which are found out in the desert around the crater.

The meteorites comes from the world known Canyon Diablo Meteor Crater. Since it is now illegal to collect these meteorites at the crater location, fewer are being made available for sale.
