The Riker collection box is approximately 85x110x23mm (3.3x4.3x.9 inch).

The Nantan meteorites are a must for all collectors, more so that it is now very difficult to find worthy specimen. They are a very interesting IAB-MG iron discovered in 1958 and there is an estimated 9.5 T of this material. This is 1 of 88 approved meteorites classified as Iron, IAB-MG.

The individual Northwest Africa or NWA 4293 formerly known as NQ10 is an H6 chondrite found in the Sahara desert in 2005 and is one of 5854 approved meteorites classified as such. This fascinating meteorite was mainly found as small individuals and the total weight of the 100's of pieces recovered is recorded as a low 25 kg. The meteorite has a shock stage of 4 and weathering grade of 2. 

Then this Stony-iron or Mesosiderite Vaca Muerta (Dead Cow) classified meteorite was found in 1861 in the driest desert of the world called the Atacama, Chile. Although most have a weathered exterior, they also have lots of metal inside. Classified as a Mesosiderite A1 is 1 of only 7 approved meteorites classified as such, with a recovered weight of about 3.83 T.

Each specimen shows very well and is a perfect size to proudly display in your collection.  Also included is a stand for the Riker box and a Canagem Collection specimen card for each meteorite. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
