Impact Melt Rock | 25.3 grams | Stac Fada Impact Structure | NW Scotland
$74.00 CAD
Unit price perImpact Melt Rock | 25.3 grams | Stac Fada Impact Structure | NW Scotland
$74.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a must have 25.3 gram Impact Melt Rock from the Stac Fada Member Impact Structure, NW Scotland. It measures 74x31x6 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 Stac Fada impact structure in Scotland. The structure has an estimated age of about 1.2Ga (1,200 Ma). The Stac Fada Member of the Precambrian Stoer Group in Scotland has previously been described as volcanic in origin. However, shocked quartz and biotite provide evidence for high-pressure shock metamorphism, while chromium isotope values and elevated abundances of platinum group metals and siderophile elements indicate addition of meteoritic material. Thus, the unit is reinterpreted as having an impact origin.
This gorgeous slice displays very well. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with two a Canagem Collection specimen card.
This is a rare Iron ungrouped classified Taza Northwest Africa 859 specimen, in an as found state. It weighs 2.8 grams and measures 14x11x5 mm.
The NWA 859 was found in 2001 in Taza, Morocco. A total weight of 75.3 kg of mostly small pieces was classified by UCLA as an Iron, ungrouped; it is one of 157 meteorites classified as such.
This specimen displays extremely well and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes in a gem jar with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
This is an individual Northwest Africa or NWA 4293 formerly known as NQ10, an H6 chondrite found in the Sahara desert in 2005. It is one of 5854 approved meteorites classified as such. The meteorite weighs 5.5 grams with dimensions of 22x18x9 mm.
This fascinating meteorite was mainly found as small individuals and the total weight of the 100's of pieces recovered is recorded as a low 25 kg. The meteorite has a shock stage of 4 and weathering grade of 2. NWA 4293 is interesting in the way it looks as can be seen in the images. Most pieces are free of caliche, have a smooth gray surface and are small complete individuals. The unusual appearance is due to shock hardening and being sandblasted in the desert.
This specimen comes with a Canagem specimen card. Would make a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
This is a beautiful black Biotite crystal book from the Calcite Vein-Dikes of the Grenville Geological Province Ontario, Canada. This biotite has classic crystal shape and attractive dark black coloration. This specimen is a great example of both.
Biotite is rarely considered a valuable mineral specimen, but it can accompany other minerals and compliment them. In Bancroft, Ontario Biotite forms large crystals with green apatite and hornblende. Single large plates or "books" of biotite can grow to considerable size and can make impressive mineral specimens.

Here we have for you a great looking end cut of a Sahara Desert NWA unclassified meteorite weighing 6.1 grams. Its dimensions are 21x14x12 mm. This never classified North West Africa stone was found in Erfoud, Morocco in the Sahara desert in 2002.
It's a very good quality cut NWA meteorite specimen showing incredibly interesting internal structure (L5?) and somewhat attractive with a mottled interior with chondrules and metallic flakes. This complete cut has very large iron inclusions, many chondrules and a nice black fusion crust. Little weathering shows the meteorite's short time spent aging in the desert preserving a nice crusted look. Displays very nicely with a clean cut and polished finish.

Impactite Breccia Suevite | 28.9 Grams | Montoume, Rochechouart Structure, France
$60.00 CAD
Unit price perImpactite Breccia Suevite | 28.9 Grams | Montoume, Rochechouart Structure, France
$60.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a must have 28.9 gram Impact Breccia also referred to as Suevite coming from the famous Rochechouart impact structure in South Western France, near the village of Montoume. 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.
Named after the town of Rochechouart, the Rochechouart impact structure is located on the western margin of the French Massif Central near the city of Limoges, approximately 350 km (220 mi) south of Paris. Rochechouart (population about 3800) is built with rocks created or modified by the impact (impactites).
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 impactite was formed 186 million years ago. This deformed rock fragments and partly molten are imbedded in a melt matrix showing typical flow structures from former melt.
This gorgeous slice displays very well with a mass of 59x40x7 mm. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Olivine Volcanic Bomb | Lava Coated Crystal | 97 gr | Mt Shadwell Volcano, Australia
$60.00 CAD
Unit price perOlivine Volcanic Bomb | Lava Coated Crystal | 97 gr | Mt Shadwell Volcano, Australia
$60.00 CAD
Unit price perAn 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.
This piece has been cut to showcase the beautiful green olivine crystals. It would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card and a stand will also be included.

Shatter Cone Impactite | 19.6 grams | Rochechouart Impact Structure | Montoume, France
$51.00 CAD
Unit price perShatter Cone Impactite | 19.6 grams | Rochechouart Impact Structure | Montoume, France
$51.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a fantastic shatter cone from Montoume France weighing 19.6 grams and measuring 45x27x16 mm. 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. This particular specimen from Montoume is classified as subvolcanic dike rock.
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's axes typically radiate outwards from the point of impact, with the cones pointing towards the center of the impact crater.
This impactite was formed 186 million years ago. 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. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
