Impactite Melt Breccia Suevite | 506.7 grams | Ries Zipplingen, Germany
$712.00 CAD
Unit price perImpactite Melt Breccia Suevite | 506.7 grams | Ries Zipplingen, Germany
$712.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a must have 506.7-gram Impact Melt Breccia, also referred to as Suevite, coming from Zipplingen and the famous Ries crater Germany. 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 14.5 million years ago in Malmian or Jurassic limestone when a meteorite crashed into the earth making a ~10 miles wide crater named the Ries crater in Germany. This gorgeous end piece displays very well and shows typical inclusions of glass bomb as the dark material and crystalline fragments visible throughout the specimen showing the stages of shock metamorphism.
It is amazingly light considering its mass of 130x109x37 mm. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Impactite Monomict Breccia | 15.4 grams | Agoudal, Imilchil Structure | Morocco
$24.00 CAD
Unit price perImpactite Monomict Breccia | 15.4 grams | Agoudal, Imilchil Structure | Morocco
$24.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a must have 15.4 gram Impactite, monomict impact breccia from the Agoudal, Imilchil impact structure, Morocco. 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. According to the state of conservation of the meteorite into the sedimentary layers "Soltanian" and the dating of ancient lake sediments of the Isli lake, we can estimate their age limit to 40,000 years.
More than 183 structures of meteoritical impacts are highlighted on the Earth, including only three reported dual impact craters. The impact craters of Isli and Tislit are respectively located at 10 km and 4 km from the Imilchil village on the Central High Atlas in Morocco at respective altitudes of 2272 and 2266 meters. They are spaced apart from each other by 9.4 km. The origin and the date of formation of these two lakes are still unknown today. Surveys undertaken near them and in the surrounding areas leads to believe that they correspond to a dual meteoritical impact crater.
Polymict and monomict breccias were observed at the edges of these craters but they don’t form big masses because of erosion. They consist of irregular fragments with millimeter and centimeter sizes, in a carbonate matrix. In the breccias collected on the southern edges of the Isli crater, we noted the presence of several shocked quartz grains in planar structures associated with rolling extinction, indicators of shock metamorphism.
This gorgeous specimen displays very well with a mass of 38x31x21 mm. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

The Riker collection box is approximately 85x110x23mm (3.3x4.3x.9 inch).
You will receive 1 Riker box containing the above impactite specimens. Note that the photos provided are representative, so you may not receive the exact pictured specimen; however, you will receive one of each of the specimen listed above of the same or higher value and similar characteristics.
The first Tektite is an Indochinite from Maoming City, Guangdong Province, China, although not a meteorite, it is directly linked to them or their impacts, just consider its age of around 780,000 years old. Tektite can still be interesting just because of the persistent mystery that resisted clear explanations of there creation for generations of geologists.
The Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, 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.
The specimen of Irghizite from the Zhamanshin impact crater, Yrgyz District, Aktobe Region in Kazakhstan is a must in any collection. This natural glass was formed from a meteorite impact melting the local rock which is confirmed with the Zhamanshin meteor crater 14 km in diameter and dated at 900,000 years ± 100,000. Of interest, this tektite glass was often used in paleolithic tool making..
Each specimen shows very well and is a perfect size to proudly display in your collection and they will come with a Canagem Collection specimen card. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
