This is a superb individual Tsarev meteorite weighing 45.7 grams. Its dimensions are 52x24x23 mm. Twenty-eight specimens of this L5 classified meteorite were found in fields.  The largest mass weighs 284 kg, the smallest 761 gr with a total weight of 1.23 Tons. The greatest distance between the find sites was 6.0 km.

In 1968, amidst a global surge in conflicts, a remarkable discovery was made in a small village in Volgograd Oblast. This region, known as the primary site of the Battle of Stalingrad—one of the largest and bloodiest battles in history—yielded an extraordinary find in the quiet fields near the rural village of Tsarev.

The Tsarev meteorite, named after the Russian word for czar, is a stone meteorite responsible for one of the largest meteorite showers in Russian history. This meteorite shower occurred on December 6, 1922, but the stones were not discovered until 1968 and only recognized in 1979. The Tsarev meteorite's mineral composition matches that of ordinary chondrites, including olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, maskelynite, calcium phosphates, nickel-iron, troilite, chromite, ilmenite, and rutile.

Academic analysis of the Tsarev meteorite reveals significant features: large grains of nickel-iron, light grey areas with well-preserved chondritic texture, and dark areas containing a matrix with olivine grains and remnants of chondrules. 

This specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Will come with a Canagem specimen card.

This is a must have 231 gram Impact Melt Glass slice from the famous Sudbury Impact Structure in Ontario Canada. Its dimensions are 123x104x9 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 pieces 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!

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.

This is a superb looking fragment of the Columbus classified meteorite weighing 4.57 grams. Its dimensions are 18x15x10 mm. This rare H5 classified meteorite was found in Luna County, New Mexico USA in 1997. The total weight of the stones recovered is recorded as a minuscule 165 grams. 

Here's what the finder, Michael Cottingham told us: "This is the Meteorite that started it all for me! My wife and I were out looking for meteorites on a dry lake bed in Southern New Mexico and I found one! This was a new meteorite discovery and it only took me 300 hours of searching to find my First One!  The COLUMBUS Meteorite was found by me in January of 1997. It was Classified by A. Rubin at UCLA as a H5 Chondrite. It was found near Columbus, Luna County, New Mexico and the Total Known Weight is ONLY 184 grams. Very Rare indeed."

This piece is part of America's history and is 1 of 228 approved meteorites from that location. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Michael Cottingham Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen cards.

This is a rare and fantastic 97.3 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 56x42x47 mm. 

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.

Here we have for you a superb looking Dhofar 020 classified meteorite weighing 49.8 grams. Its dimensions are 68x32x20 mm.  Found 10 March 2000 in Dhofar, Oman, in the Arabian Peninsula this H4/5 classified chondrite has a TKW of 256 Kg with a shock stage of S4 and weathering grade of W3 by the Russian Academy of Sciences, USSR.

The following is an excerpt from Mark Bostick's review of this meteorite:  "Dhofar 020 is a ordinary stone chondrite meteorite. The meteorite is high in free metal and therefore falls in the H class. S4 tells it is highly shocked. Slices of the meteorite, show veins of the cosmic impact created mineral Ringwoodite, although fractures in the stone tend to hide this some. It almost appears to me to have splinted upon impact. The meteorite falls in 4-5 petrology class, a reference to how metamorphed the meteorite is from its original state. This is judged by studying a thin section of the meteorite, most visually at the chondrules, a feature unique to stone meteorite. In a thin section under polarized light, pyroxene chondrules seem more common then their olivine pair. Still some regions in the meteorite show scattered patches of bright olivine inclusions. These are fairly rare, at least on my thin section, and most of the meteorite's olivine and pyroxene, some of the easier things to see in a thin section, appear to have went through a metamorphism, and have "melted" into the matrix and are at times undistinguishable."

This piece displays extremely well showing a beautiful crust, superb shape and good size. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a must have 209 gram polymict impact breccia from the Lockne Crater located approximately 21 km south of the city of Östersund in northern Sweden.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 132x63x23 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 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.

Lockne is a 7.5km-wide impact structure that formed circa 455 Ma when an L-chondritic asteroid impacted mixed sedimentary and crystalline target rocks that were under a shallow epicontinental sea (500m deep) at the time. The feature and its surrounding impactite deposits were covered by Caledonian thrust nappes that also partly folded them.

Erosion has breached much of the overthrust rocks to show the impact site. Impactites include the Loftarstone (graywacke-like arenite with carbonate grains), Lockne Breccia (polymictic but mostly limestone clasts), Resurge deposits, Ynntjämen Breccia (monomictic, matrix-supported with calcareous-argillaceous matrix) and the Tandsbyn Breccia (monomictic crystalline ejecta).  This crater has been suggested to be a doublet with the nearby smaller Målingen Crater, 16 km apart.

This gorgeous large slice displays very well.  It would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is an incredible part slice of the Abee meteorite (MB 8) that fell in Alberta, Canada at 11:05 p.m. on June 9th 1952.  It took five days to find it in a wheat field belonging to Mr. Harry Buryn.  It is located in the community of Abee, Alberta, Canada in Thorhild County, along the Canadian National Railway and Highway 63, 16 km north of Thorhild and 49 km from Boyle.

This rare and highly collectable EH4 Enstatite chondrite is 1 of only 21 approved meteorites classified as such, 1 of 3 being an observed fall and only 1 of 5 not found in Antarctica. The total Mass is registered at 107 Kilograms in one stone recovered from a 6 ft (1.8 m) deep crater.  This is a great specimen at 0.6 grams.

This piece of the hard to acquire Abee meteorite is a high quality specimen that would make an amazing addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Michael Cottingham Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a fabulous Ghubara meteorite end cut from the Michael Cottingham Collection, weighing 36.12 grams and measuring 56x30x14 mm.  It was found in Oman, Southern Arabia in 1954 and is classified as an L5 Stony Black Chondrite.

This piece displays extremely well with a high gloss finish and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Michael Cottingham Collection and a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a stunning Veevers classified meteorite weighing 2.67 grams. Mark Bostick said that the specimen was shaped like a bird claw.  He traded the main mass of this amazing meteorite to TCU.  This amazingly well preserved specimen measures 15x8x7 mm. 

The Veevers crater is located in the Gibson Desert of Western Australia. It has a diameter of 60-80 meters across and a depth of about 6-7 meters. The crater's rim is raised 1.5m above the surrounding plain, and contains exposed rocks thrown from the center of the crater. The sides are gravelly rock with a few larger rocks mixed within. The bottom of the crater is covered with sand.  Veevers is isolated in a vast, flat landscape with no other features in sight. Discovered in the mid-1970's and named by Yeates, A.N., Crowe, R.W.A. & Towner, R.R., in 1976, as The Veevers Crater in honor of Australian geologist Prof. John Veevers, for his work at mapping Western Australia.

In 1984, Dr. Carolyn and Eugene Shoemaker investigated meteorite craters and ancient impact structures throughout Australia. Their search recovered thirty-six small meteoritic fragments from the Veevers crater. Their finds totaled 298.1 grams, and included the largest found to date, 36.3g., now cleaned and coated it weighs 37.0 grams. The Veevers fragments have been described as single crystals of kamacite. Kamacite is a metallic iron with up to 7.5% nickel. Since the Shoemaker trip, more meteorite fragments have been found, bringing the total known weight to around 1 kg. The Veevers crater is naturally rich in iron-rich laterite, which makes recovery of small meteorite fragments hard. It is one of only two impact craters where group IIAB meteorites have been discovered. The other being the Sikhote-Alin craters in Eastern Siberia, Russia.

Would be an exceptional and rare addition to any new or existing collection.  This historically important specimen will come in its original Mark Bostick display box and include The Mark Bostick Collection and Canagem Collection specimen cards.

This is a great looking H5 classified meteorite and a great looking professionally prepared full slice, this excellent specimen weighs 15.88 grams and represents the Capot Rey meteorite found in 2004 in Niger.  The total know weight of the find is at 38 Kilograms with a shock stage of S2 and weathering degree of W1.  This full slice measures 55x32x3 mm.

Many stony fragments totalling 38 kg were found by by G. Moreau in the erg Capot-Rey, Ténéré du Tafassasset, Niger. The stones define an elliptical strewn-field measuring 7x3.5 km, with a NE-SW major axis. The largest fragment weighs 2 kg.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. A great display piece, it comes with a Gi-Po-de Collection and a Canagem Collection specimen card.

An olivine volcanic bomb is a type of volcanic rock that contains olivine crystals and has been ejected during a volcanic eruption. Olivine is a mineral that is commonly found in the Earth's mantle and is one of the first minerals to crystallize as magma cools.

Volcanic bombs are large clots of lava that are ejected from a volcano during an explosive eruption. They can vary in size, and their shapes are often streamlined due to their molten nature as they are thrown through the air. When these volcanic bombs contain olivine crystals, they are referred to as olivine volcanic bombs.

The crystal face has been cut and polished to show the red and green olivine crystals which are showcased beautifully against the surrounding lava crust. This museum grade specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
