Meteorites

This is a micro of the  Canyon Diablo classified meteorite. This Iron (IAB-MG) classified meteorite was found in Arizona in 1891. So far approximately 30 T of this material have been recovered.

The crater it formed is world famous and is known as Meteor Crater. It is an Arizona Meteorite and one that is a must have for any collection. The Canyon Diablo has been closed to hunting for many years so these pieces are becoming more difficult to acquire and this is a good time to get a fine specimen.

Would make a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes in a gem jar with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a nice micro crystal of the Esquel Pallasite PMG stony iron classified meteorite.  This rare meteorite was found in Chubut Province (Patagonian Territory), Argentina in 1951 and the Total Known Weight is ~ 755 kg.  This is 1 of 79 approved meteorites classified as Pallasite, PMG.

This piece displays nicely and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes protected in a gem jar with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a 0.95 gram grouping of micros of the Russian Sikhote-Alin classified meteorite. This Iron (IIAB) Coarsest Octahedrite classified meteorite was recovered in Russia after the fall of February 12, 1947.

So far approximately 23 tons of this material have been recovered. This piece displays extremely well and is a very desirable size. These specimens are known as shrapnel specimens, ripped and torn edges reminiscent of bomb shrapnel. They broke due to atmospheric pressure and/or mid-air collisions, and possibly explosive fragmentation upon impact. These pieces are a good example of the shrapnel type Sikhote-Alin.

This is a fabulous 20.6 gram Sericho Pallasite Main Group meteorite, it measures 33x27x18 mm.  In 2016, two brothers were searching for their camels and came across several large, dense stones west of the village of Habaswein and south of Sericho, Kenya. Though recognized as meteorites in 2016, the masses had been known to camel-herders for decades. One village elder said that as a child, he and his brothers would play on top of the stones.  It is classified as an Iron Pallasite main group with low weathering and is 1 of only 68 approved meteorites classified as such, with a recovered weight of about 2.8 T.

This is an amazingly rare classified meteorite shale specimen of Lake Murray weighing 5.5 grams. Its dimensions are 33x23x6 mm.  This Iron (IIAB) classified meteorite was found in Oklahoma in 1933. Only 270 kg of this material have been recovered and most of it is on display in a museum.  This is 1 of 153 approved meteorites classified as Iron, IIAB.

The Lake Murray meteorite is an iron meteorite with an exceptionally long terrestrial age, found encased in a thick layer of iron shale (also known as oxidite) in the Lower Cretaceous Antler Sandstone formation in Oklahoma. It is considered the oldest unaltered meteorite with an intact core known on Earth, having landed approximately 110 million years ago, during the Cretaceous Period.

It was found in 1933 in a gully on a farm near Lake Murray, Carter County, Oklahoma, which is now part of Lake Murray State Park.

The Lake Murray meteorite's unique preservation makes it a crucial subject in the study of paleo-meteoritics (the study of ancient meteorites). While other older "fossil" meteorites exist (such as those in Swedish limestone dated at 450 million years), their original metallic components have been completely replaced by terrestrial minerals, leaving only a structural replica. The Lake Murray specimen is unique because it still retains its original, unaltered nickel-iron core.

This is a superb and rare individual specimen of the Zagora classified meteorite.  It weigh 3 grams and measures 15x8x8 mm. This Iron IAB-ung classified meteorite was found in Zagora, Ouarzazate, Morocco in 1987.  So far approximately 50 Kilos of this material has been recovered.  This is 1 of 69 approved meteorites classified as Iron, IAB-ung.

An unreported number of masses were found, the largest weighing 20 kg, 20 miles S. of Zagora (J. Schwade, 969 S. Chicago Avenue, Kankakee, Illinois 60901, USA). Classification from oxygen isotopic data, R. N. Clayton (1988) pers. comm. Analysis, 9.8% Ni, 62.2 ppm Ga, 226 ppm Ge, 2.68 ppm Ir, J. T. Wasson et al., (1989) Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 53, 735.

This is a nice 6.48 gram specimen of the Seymchan Iron meteorite, the fragment measures 22x15x13 mm. The meteorite was found in 1967 in a brook-bed flowing into the river of Hekandue, a left tributary of the river of Jasachnaja of the Magadan district, USSR. It is classified as an Iron Pallasite main group and is 1 of only 48 approved meteorites classified as such, with a recovered weight of about 323 Kg.

This piece is very stable and will remain like this for years to come with minimal care. This piece displays extremely well and is a desirable size showing great features. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a fabulous 1.24 grams Molong stony iron classified meteorite fragment.  This superb meteorite was found in Ashburnham, NSW, Australia in 1912 and has a low Total Known Weight of 104 kg.  This is 1 of 72 approved meteorites classified as Pallasite, PMG. 

This Molong meteorite fragment is a rare 1.24-gram piece of Pallasite PMG (main chemical group) stony iron, originally part of a 230-pound mass found in 1912 near Ti Tree Creek, Ashburnham, NSW, Australia. Known for its unique iron-nickel matrix interspersed with olivine crystals, this specimen offers valuable insight into early solar system processes. 

Even though the iron of this ancient meteorite has changed into Meteorite Shale due to its millions of years of exposure on earth, it still shows the beautiful pallasite structure it is famous for and will also reacts strongly to a magnet. Unlike most pallasites you see, Molong is almost all olivine crystals with just a little metal between them. The olivine crystals are semi-translucent, you can't see through them, but you can see reflections from within the crystals.

Its historical significance and scientific value make it an important addition for collectors and researchers specializing in meteoritics. Comes in a protective case with an ELKK Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a fabulous 40.08 grams Brahin Pallasite stony iron classified meteorite part slice with dimensions of 42x32x7 mm. This superb meteorite was found in Minsk, Gomel Region, Belarus in 1810 and the Total Known Weight is ~ 823 kg. 

This piece displays extremely well and is a highly desirable size showing great features. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card and a metal specimen label.

This is a superb Nantan meteorite individual specimen, directly from Guangxi, China. Its dimensions are 56x42x15 mm and it weighs 29.8 grams.

The Nantan meteorites are a must for all collectors, more so that it is now very difficult to find worthy specimen. They are a very interesting IAB-MG iron discovered in 1958 and there is an estimated 9.5 T of this material. This is 1 of 88 approved meteorites classified as Iron, IAB-MG.
