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.
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 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.

This is a must have 4.71 gram impactite from the Boltysh Crater in Ukraine. Its dimensions are 28x27x4mm. 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. The Boltysh impactites are important geological specimens that are recognized by the scientific community as evidence of asteroid or comet impacts on Earth.
The Boltysh crater is a well-preserved impact crater located in central Ukraine. It was formed approximately 65 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous period, around the same time as the Chicxulub impact that is thought to have caused the mass extinction of the dinosaurs. The crater is estimated to be around 24 kilometers in diameter and is one of the best-preserved impact structures in the world.
The Boltysh crater has been extensively studied by scientists because of its importance in understanding the effects of large-scale impacts on the Earth's surface and the resulting environmental changes that occur. Studies of the rocks and sediments from the crater have provided valuable insights into the processes of impact cratering, such as the formation of impact melt rocks and the creation of shock metamorphic features.
