This is an individual Northwest Africa or NWA 4293 formerly known as NQ10, an H6 chondrite found in the Sahara desert in 2005. It is one of 5854 approved meteorites classified as such. The meteorite weighs 9.5 grams with dimensions of 28x16x13mm.
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. NWA 4293 is interesting in the way it looks as can be seen in the images. Most pieces are free of caliche, have a smooth gray surface and are small complete individuals. The unusual appearance is due to shock hardening and being sandblasted in the desert.
This specimen comes with a Canagem specimen card. Would make a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Unit price perOlivine Volcanic Bomb | Lava Coated Crystal | 90 gr | Mt Shadwell Volcano, Australia
$47.00 CAD
Unit price perAn olivine volcanic bomb is a type of volcanic rock that contains olivine crystals and has been ejected during a volcanic eruption. Olivine is a mineral that is commonly found in the Earth's mantle and is one of the first minerals to crystallize as magma cools.
Volcanic bombs are large clots of lava that are ejected from a volcano during an explosive eruption. They can vary in size, and their shapes are often streamlined due to their molten nature as they are thrown through the air. When these volcanic bombs contain olivine crystals, they are referred to as olivine volcanic bombs.
This piece has been cut to show the green olivine crystals which are showcased beautifully against the surrounding black lava crust.

Quartz crystals are among the most abundant and well-known minerals on Earth. Quartz belongs to the hexagonal crystal system. It typically forms six-sided prismatic crystals with a pointed termination. Its crystals can be colorless or exhibit a wide range of colors. The color variations are often due to the presence of impurities or trace elements during the crystal's formation. Quartz is transparent to translucent.
Quartz is considered a “master healer.” It's believed to amplify energy by absorbing, storing, releasing, and regulating it. It's thought to aid concentration and memory. Quartz is also said to be a power gemstone that harmonizes and balances; enhancing energy and thoughts as well as purifying the spiritual, mental and physical. Quartz is associated with the crown chakra.

Monturaqui Impactite | 28.45ct. 5.66 Gr | Rare Specimen | Monturaqui Impact Crater, Chile
$50.00 CAD
Unit price perMonturaqui Impactite | 28.45ct. 5.66 Gr | Rare Specimen | Monturaqui Impact Crater, Chile
$50.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is an outstanding Monturaqui Impactite specimen weighing 5.66 grams. It measures 26x20x11 mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts.
Some of the recovered pieces of this impactite show tiny bits of the original iron meteorite. There is very little of the original meteorite left at this impact site, but sometimes when these Impactites are sliced you can find small fragments of metal in them. This specimen was collected by Michael Cottingham during an excursion to the Impactite Site.
The Monturaqui Crater is located in a very remote part of North Chile's Atacama Desert. This crater measures about 370 meters in diameter. Less than 4 kilos of Iron Shale fragments and about 50kg of Impactites have been found so far. This crater was made over 100,000 years ago. The only evidence remaining of the original meteorite is seen in the shale and impactite.
Impactite is a slag-like glassy object found on the surface of the earth, formed from rock melted by the impact of a meteorite. The term encompasses shock-metamorphosed target rocks, melts or suevites and mixtures of the two, as well as sedimentary rocks with significant impact-derived components and shocked mineral grains, tektites, anomalous geochemical signatures, etc.
This piece displays extremely well. It is amazingly light considering its mass. It has a unique hollow sound when you tap it. This Chilean find is very well shaped and preserved. These impactites are becoming more difficult to acquire so this is a good time to get a fine specimen. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
This specimen originates from the Michael Cottingham Meteorite Collection and is guaranteed to be authentic. The specimen will come with a Michael Cottingham and a Canagem specimen card.

Melt Glass Part-Slice | 28.35 Grams | Impactite | Sudbury Structure, Canada,
$48.00 CAD
Unit price perMelt Glass Part-Slice | 28.35 Grams | Impactite | Sudbury Structure, Canada,
$48.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a must have 28.35-gram Impact Melt Glass from the famous Sudbury Impact Structure in Ontario Canada. Its dimensions are 49x44x10 mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts and are probably going to be one of the rarest collection pieces you'll ever own.
About 1.87 billion years ago, an object from space 9 kilometers in diameter, slammed into Canada a little north of Sudbury, Ontario creating the second largest impact structure on the earth. This impact was equivalent to a billion tons of TNT; an impact so great that it cracked the earth, in fact they still have earthquakes because of it today!
The many mineral rich deposits and strange rock formations in such close proximity has attracted attention for 100's of years, long before its impact origin was known, from Thomas Edison, who built a lab on site to NASA Moonwalker "Gene" Cernan, who studied and collected geology samples as part of his pre-moon mission training.

Vaca Muerta Meteorite | 2.76 Grams | End Cut | Mesosiderite A1 | Famous | Chile
$41.00 CAD
Unit price perVaca Muerta Meteorite | 2.76 Grams | End Cut | Mesosiderite A1 | Famous | Chile
$41.00 CAD
Unit price perHere we have for you a superb looking Stony-iron or Mesosiderite Vaca Muerta (Dead Cow) classified meteorite end cut weighing 2.76 grams. Its dimensions are 15x16x5 mm.
This classified meteorite was found in 1861 in the driest desert of the world called the Atacama, in Chile. Mesosiderites are formed on the surface of a parent body as a result of impacts with another body. The impact mixed broken fragments of surface eucrites with iron and olivine from deep within the body. Eucrites are believed to have come from the asteroid Vesta. Analysis has shown, however, that the Vaca Muerta eucrite inclusions are not consistent with other eucrites and possibly originated on a different parent body. Although most have a weathered exterior, they also have lots of metal inside and can be prepared and cut to show this.
This piece displays extremely well and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with ELKK Meteorites and Canagem® specimen cards.
