Unit price perThis 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.

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

Unit price perThis is a must have slice of Brent pinkish gneiss impact breccia. It is roughly diamond shaped with dimensions of 140x75x8 mm and a weight of 106 grams. It comes together with a collectable twelve-page booklet, with paper a cover, entitled Brent Crater Trail: History of the Crater.
This 14x21.5cm fully illustrated collectible trail guide was published in 1998 and is a great introduction to the Brent Crater. It examines the history of the Brent Crater, discovered in 1951, one of Canada’s many meteorite impact craters. The crater itself is about 3.8 km in diameter and is estimated to be 396-million year old (+ or - 20 million years).
Long after a meteorite impact crater has begun to disappear from the landscape, a variety of impactites may remain. One variety is impact breccia, a mixture of shattered and sometimes melted rock.
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. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection, also perfect as a gift for a young space enthusiast. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
The Azuara polymict impact breccia refers to the impact material from the 38 million year old twin (multiple) impact structures Azuara / Rubielos de la Cerida in Northern Spain.
This polymict impact breccia was found in the area of Santa Cruz de Nogueras near the center area of this large multiple impact structure. This is partly melted and/or decarbonized limestone fragments in a dense and extremely hard matrix showing flow texture.

Unit price perThis is a must have 217.7 gram slice of Black Onaping Impact Fallback Breccia from the famous Sudbury Impact Structure in Ontario Canada. It's dimensions are 126x117x7 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.

Unit price perThis is a fantastic shatter cone from Canada weighing 850 grams and measuring 23x9x4.5 cm. This shatter cone was formed 1.849 billion years ago at the Sudbury Basin (also named Sudbury Structure) in the Paleoproterozoic era. The exact location of the find is written on the back of this amazing specimen. Although not a meteorite, impactites and shatter cones are directly linked to them and their impacts. Shatter cones are evidence that the rock has been subjected to an extreme shock with very brief high pressures.
Shatter cones are rare geological features that are only known to form in the bedrock beneath large meteorite impact craters. They have a distinctively conical shape with thin grooves (striae) that radiate from the top (apex) of the cone. Shatter cones can range in length from 1 centimeter to several meters. The azimuths of the cones' axes typically radiate outwards from the point of impact, with the cones pointing towards the center of the impact crater.
This piece displays very well and is a very nice size showing multiple characteristics of its origin. Would make a beautiful addition to any collection.

Unit price perThis is a must have 11.4 gram Impact Melt Rock from the Dhala Impact Structure, India. It measures 41x29x6 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.
This beautiful Impact melt rock comes from the 11 km-diameter highly eroded Dhala impact structure in India. The Dhala structure has an estimated age of about 2Ga (2,000 Ma), making it the third oldest terrestrial impact structure.
This gorgeous slice displays very well. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
