Aegirine, also known as acmite, is a rare and stunning black mineral. It is found in many locations around the world.  Aegirine is usually black, greenish-black, or brownish-black in color and has a glassy or vitreous luster. It has a hardness of 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, which means it is relatively hard and durable. Aegirine is also known for its straight, needle-like crystals that can grow up to several centimeters in length.  

Aegirine is believed to have properties associated with protection, energy balancing, and spiritual growth. Microcline, being a feldspar, is often linked to creativity and intuition. The combination of these minerals is thought to enhance their individual metaphysical properties.

This is a superb looking slice of the Shişr or Shi 010 meteorite, weighing 6.26 grams. Its dimensions are  40x24x3 mm. This L5 classified meteorite was part of the 16 stones found in the Shişr Desert of Oman by Russian meteorite hunters in 2001 with a total mass of 17.6 Kg. The shock stage of 3 and weathering grade of 3 is recorded for these pieces.  This meteorite is likely paired with Shişr 008, an L5 that weighed 244 grams.

This piece shows a nice polished face and is a desirable size perfect to show in class or at a science show.  This specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Will come with a Canagem specimen card.

This is a must have 22.7 gram Impactite from Norrbo, Sweden.  Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts and are probably going to be one of the rarest collection items you'll ever own. 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 impactite 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 impactite was formed approx. 89 million years ago when a meteorite crashed into the earth.

This gorgeous slice displays very well.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 58x32x10mm.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a rare and fantastic 4.7 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 27x17x11 mm.  Although its exact origin is still debated, the leading theory suggests it was formed by a high-energy event, such as a meteoric impact or airburst, that melted the desert sand directly where it lay, without being ejected into the atmosphere and re-entering. This results in different physical characteristics compared to tektites.

Libyan Desert Glass is found specifically in the Great Sand Sea of the Eastern Sahara, within a more localized area spanning parts of western Egypt and eastern Libya.  Characterized by its yellow to greenish-yellow color, it lacks the aerodynamic shapes of tektites and often appears as irregularly shaped pieces. It is almost pure silica (around 98%) with very few impurities. Throughout history, it has been regarded as a mystical and powerful material, sometimes used in talismans and amulets.

This piece displays extremely well and is a quality translucent specimen. It has an aesthetic shape with a beautiful wind eroded body from the years spent in the Desert. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a great 36.2 gram Impact Melt Breccia from the Gardnos Crater in Norway.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 51x40x9mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts and are probably going to be one of the rarest collection item you'll ever own. 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 impactite 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 impactite was formed between 385 and 900 million years ago in Precambrian time when a meteorite crashed into the earth making a ~5 kilometers wide crater locally known as the Hallingdal Impact Crater. 

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a rare and fantastic 4.4 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 30x19x12 mm.  Although its exact origin is still debated, the leading theory suggests it was formed by a high-energy event, such as a meteoric impact or airburst, that melted the desert sand directly where it lay, without being ejected into the atmosphere and re-entering. This results in different physical characteristics compared to tektites.

This is a great looking end cut Gao-Guenie H5 classified meteorite weighing 5.45 grams. Its dimensions are 25x17x8 mm and it has a crusted edge. 

This H5 classified meteorite was observed falling at about 17:00 March 5, 1960 near the village of Gao in Africa. There is no total known weight recorded for this meteorite.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with an ELKK Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen card.

You will receive the exact matching iridescent ammonite halves pictured here.  They measure 38x29mm.

This is a perfectly fossilized and highly polished natural Ammonite from Morocco, which is perfect for gift giving to a new fossil collector. Ammonites are perhaps the most widely known fossil, possessing the typically ribbed spiral-form shell. These creatures lived in the seas between 240 - 65 million years ago, when they became extinct along with the dinosaurs. They belong to a group of predators known as cephalopods, which includes their living relatives the octopus, squid, cuttlefish and nautilus. It is probably going to be one of the rarest collection item you'll ever own. These are perfect if you make jewelry and similar crafts or as a fossil collection item.  

Pseudomorphs are mineral specimens that have the external shape of one mineral but are composed of another.  The pseudomorph goethite after marcasite forms when marcasite is exposed to oxidizing conditions and starts to oxidize and break down. As the marcasite breaks down, goethite replaces it in the crystal structure, preserving the shape of the original marcasite crystal. The resulting specimen appears as a marcasite crystal, but is actually composed of goethite.

The Farafra Oasis, in the White Desert, has been known for a number of years to deliver incredible pseudomorph specimens. The pseudomorphs occur within the Cretaceous Khoman Chalk, from which the White Desert derives its name.

This specimen is remarkable for its relatively sharp and bladed marcasite crystal form.  It is in excellent condition.
