Big Rock Donga Meteorite | 3.98 Grams | Slice | H6 Chondrite | Australia
$142.00 CAD
Unit price / per1 low in stock
This is an incredible slice of the Big Rock Donga meteorite (MB 71) found in Nullarbor, South Australia in 1970. Just a single stone of this H6 meteorite was found - by an old trapper who used the stone to plug up a rabbit burrow to keep the rabbits from escaping! It remained on a sheep farm for many years before finally being recognised as meteoric in 1989.
The matrix is grey/green and mottled, with dark coloured chondrules, lots and lots of fine grained metal flake and dark fusion crust on some specimens. This is a very appealing, difficult to obtain meteorite which is not markedly weathered. . This rare and highly collectable H6 Chondrite is 1 of only 197 approved meteorites from South Australia. The total Mass is registered at 19 Kilograms and this is a nice piece at 3.98 grams with dimensions of 32x23x2 mm.
This piece displays very well with its polished face and would be an amazing addition to any new or existing collection with a high quality piece which is impossible to acquire. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card and one from origin.
