This is a great looking Bilanga classified meteorite specimen weighing 4.68 grams with  dimensions of 22x17x10 mm.  This Achondrite Diogenite classified meteorite was observed falling in 1999 in Gnagna, Burkina Faso and is 1 of only 240 approved meteorites classified as such. The total weight of the pieces recovered is recorded as 25 kilograms.

This piece is a very desirable type of material and a great specimen all around. The specimen comes in a protective display case with label. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card plus one from origin.

This is a beautiful, black Biotite crystal book from Córdoba. Spain. This biotite has a classic crystal shape and attractive dark coloration. 

Biotite is rarely considered a valuable mineral specimen, but it can accompany other minerals and compliment them. In Bancroft, Ontario Biotite forms large crystals with green apatite and hornblende. Single large plates or "books" of biotite can grow to considerable size and can make impressive mineral specimens.

This is a must have 191.39 gram slice of Black Onaping Impact Fallback Breccia from the famous Sudbury Impact Structure in Ontario Canada. It's dimensions are 116x115x6 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 piece 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!

This specimen of Sudbury Black Onaping Breccia is a lithified fallback breccia composed of melt glass and country target rock fragments. This meteorite impact created a large mushroom cloud that fell back down to earth to create this breccia. "Bucky Ball Fullerine" with terrestrial carbon in the form of C-60 and C-70 is found in this type of Sudbury impact rock. Greenish-Blueish dust covered Tektites can also be found within its matrix. The Onaping forms in two layers, the first one is grey and second one is black.

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.  Thomas Edison, for instance, built a lab on site and NASA Moonwalker "Gene" Cernan, who studied and collected geology samples as part of his pre-moon mission training.

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

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.   Dyed Blue Howlite is used as a turquoise substitute and is sometimes marketed as turquenite.

Howlite is said to be an extremely calming stone, which may help prevent insomnia.  It is also said that Howlite teaches patience and helps to eliminate anger and strengthens positive character traits.  Blue Howlite specifically, is said to aid in recalling dreams and accessing their insights.

This is a fabulous specimen of bladed kyanite and quartz mined in Barra do Salinas district, Barra do Salinas, Coronel Murta, Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Kyanite is known to be one of the most attractive natural minerals in the world, frequently found with lustrous blue bladed crystals, with the intensity of color varying by location of extraction. Kyanite regularly forms fibrous, radiating crystals, as well as flattened and tabular. Some crystals form with white striations, color bands, and even multi-colored crystals, though typically found with a deep blue streak running down the middle.

Blue kyanite is often associated with clarity, communication, and energy alignment. Some believe it helps with self-expression and speaking one’s truth, making it a popular stone for those who want to improve communication or deepen their intuition.
