This is a Canyon Diablo classified meteorite shale specimen weighing 1.1 grams. Its dimensions are 13x10x3 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 known as Meteor Crater (also known as "Barringer 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.

These are fragments of the Allende meteorite that fell in Pueblito de Allende, Chihuahua, Mexico at 1:05 am on February 8, 1969. 

The Allende is a very rare type of meteorite CV3 Carbonaceous Chondrite, Type III and is 1 of 592 approved meteorites classified as CV3.  These fragments weigh 0.05 grams.

The known total weight is approximately 2 Tons. The huge fireball lighted up thousands of square miles of Northern Mexico and Southwestern United States. The fireball travelled from south to north. A meteorite shower spread over 50 square kilometers area. There are several pits; the biggest one is 60 cm across and 15 cm deep. Search and preliminary investigation of the meteorites were carried out by Dr. E. King (NASA), Drs. B. Mason and R. Clarke (Smithsonian Institution, Washington, USA) and others.
