This is a fabulous 11.4 gram Sericho Pallasite Main Group meteorite, it measures 28x18x17 mm.  In 2016, two brothers were searching for their camels and came across several large, dense stones west of the village of Habaswein and south of Sericho, Kenya.  Though recognized as meteorites in 2016, the masses had been known to camel-herders for decades. One village elder said that as a child, he and his brothers would play on top of the stones.  It is classified as an Iron Pallasite main group with low weathering and is 1 of only 68 approved meteorites classified as such, with a recovered weight of about 2.8 T.

This piece displays extremely well and is a nice size showing great features. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a fantastic Impactite Fallback Breccia from Germany weighing 67.3 grams and measuring 75x59x10mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites and shatter cones are directly linked to them and their impacts. The Steinheim Basin today exhibits a distinct morphological depression that is ∼110 m deep and ∼3.5 km in diameter; the height of the central uplift totals to more than 140 m. The original size of the pristine crater is estimated to be ∼3.8 km with an original depth of ∼205 m.

As this drainless morphological depression was filled by lake sediments shortly after the impact, the primary crater morphology is widely preserved. The crater rim is formed by steeply inclined and intensely brecciated Upper Jurassic limestone blocks that also contain numerous shattered chert nodules, as well as some loose blocks of the host limestone. An impact breccia, referred to as the so-called ”Primäre Beckenbrekzie” (“primary basin breccia”) and interpreted as a “fallback breccia”, is known from many drillings in the Steinheim Basin.

Mainly composed of Middle to Upper Jurassic limestones, marls, mudstones, and sandstones, the impact breccia inside the morphological depression of the Steinheim Basin is overlain by lake sediments and is obviously preserved in its original thickness and position.   This piece displays very well and is a very nice size showing multiple characteristics of its origin. Would make a beautiful addition to any collection.

Gormanite is a rare phosphate mineral best known for its striking blue to greenish-blue color, often forming as fibrous or radiating crystal clusters. It was first discovered in Yukon, Canada, and is named after Canadian mineralogist Don Gorman. 

Due to its rarity and delicate crystal habit, gormanite is primarily of interest to collectors and mineral enthusiasts. Well-formed specimens are appreciated for their intense color, silky luster, and often intricate, fibrous formations. Gormanite is relatively soft (around 4.5–5 on the Mohs scale) and fragile, so it's best suited for display rather than handling.

Howlite was discovered near Windsor, Nova Scotia in 1868 and named after Henry How, a Canadian chemist, geologist, and mineralogist.  It often forms in nodules which resemble cauliflower heads. The nodules are opaque, white with gray or black veins, often showing web-like pattern. 

Howlite is said to be an extremely calming stone, it can be an excellent antidote to insomnia.  It is also said that Howlite teaches patience and helps to eliminate anger and strengthens positive character traits.

Serpentinite is a rock composed of one or more serpentine group minerals and is named after the Latin word "serpens" meaning a serpent, alluding to the appearance of snake skin.  Minerals in this group are rich in magnesium and water and are light to dark green. They are formed by serpentinization, a hydration and metamorphic transformation of ultramafic rock from the Earth's mantle. 

Serpentinite is thought to aid in grounding, protection, and clearing negative energy. It is believed to help with emotional resilience and spiritual transformation, making it a favored stone for balancing energy and navigating life changes.

Wavellite typically forms as radiating, spherical clusters or botryoidal (grape-like) aggregates, often appearing as green, yellow, brown, or even blue clusters on a host rock. The mineral typically forms in low-grade metamorphic rocks and phosphate-rich environments, often associated with minerals like quartz, variscite, and limonite.

Wavellite is found in several locations worldwide, with Arkansas, USA being one of the most famous sources, producing well-formed green botryoidal specimens. Other notable locations include England, Bolivia, Brazil, Germany, and Australia.

It is believed wavellite is linked to clarity, insight, and emotional balance, helping to provide a broader perspective on situations. It is sometimes associated with the heart chakra, thought to encourage compassion and emotional healing. Due to its radiating crystal structure, it is also seen as a symbol of energy expansion and awareness.

This is a great 22 gram Impact Melt Breccia from the Gardnos Crater in Norway.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 56x28x9mm. 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.
