Meteorites

This is a stunning Canyon Diablo classified meteorite specimen weighing 3.9 grams. Its dimensions are 17x10x7 mm. 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.

Mr Hupé wrote: "This is a one-of-a-kind Anomalous Primitive Achondrite found in the Sahara desert. Some may ask: OK, another Primitive Achondrite -- What is the big deal? First of all, primitive achondrites are more rare than planetary meteorites and anomalous specimens are among the rarest. Let me tell you the history of this material first and then try to explain its importance.

NWA 3133 was first thought to be either a brachinite or a recrystallized chondrite prompting two laboratories, Northern Arizona University and the University of Washington, to seek oxygen isotope testing, a way to determine its final classification. A specimen was submitted to the University of Western Ontario for this very purpose. The results were received and they plotted so far away from any known achondrite that one scientist had to ask, "How is this possible?" The results were so outrageous and potentially significant that it was decided to send out a second specimen for confirmation. The second specimen was sent to the Geophysical Laboratory in Washington D.C. for analysis. The results confirmed the important findings at the University of Western Ontario: NWA 3133 oxygen isotopes plot further away from the Earth-Moon line than any known achondrite including NWA 011."

This expertly prepared specimen comes with an identification card from The Hupé Collection and a Canagem specimen card. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a great looking H5 classified El Hammami Meteorite which was found in 1997 in Tiris Zemmour, Mauritania and brought to market in Morocco. The nomads claimed that this meteorite was found in Algeria.

This 3.28 gram specimen measures 17x17x9 mm and is also offered under the names Mhamid and Hamada du Draa. Because of the confusion of names and locations, the Catalogue of Meteorites mentions that these likely represent a single fall with a total mass of about 240 kg.
