$160.00 CAD
Unit price perName: Tagish Lake
Date - Fall: 18 January 2000 at 08:43 pst
Class: Carbonaceous chondrite (C2, ungrouped)
Weight: Fragment 41 mg
Origin: Tagish Lake, British Columbia , Canada
This is a nice fragment of the Tagish Lake meteorite. On 18 January 2000 at 08:43 local time a huge fireball followed by loud detonations was widely observed over the Yukon Territory and northern British Columbia. An individual, Jim Brook, recovered several dozen meteorites totaling ~1 kg on the ice of Taku Arm, Tagish Lake, on January 25 and 26. The total mass collected was between 5 and 10 kg most of which is in permanent institutional storage.
Very little of this material is available and what is available is in very small fragments. This is a nice piece that weighs 41 milligrams. Based on mineralogy, isotopic compositions, and bulk chemical compositions, Tagish Lake appears to be intermediate between CM and CI chondrites. It has significantly less amino acids than expected and it may be a very primitive carbonaceous chondrite, class C2 ungr.
Don't miss your chance to add this rarely offered location to your collection. Specimen is accompanied by a Canagem Meteorite Collection specimen card and is housed in a display box.

Natural Herkimer Diamonds | 5 carat Lots | 7.3 - 9 mm | Herkimer County NY
From $22.00 CAD
Unit price perNatural Herkimer Diamonds | 5 carat Lots | 7.3 - 9 mm | Herkimer County NY
From $22.00 CAD
Unit price perHerkimer Diamonds are beautiful double-terminated quartz crystals which are found mainly in Herkimer County, New York. Incredibly, these phenomenal gemstones are believed to be close to five hundred million years old. The crystals are magnificent works of nature found in the rock, appearing to have been precision cut by man and having a diamond-like geometrical shape; thus, the name Herkimer Diamond. Many collectors believe the Herkimer Diamond should rival a true diamond and their reasoning for this is that a true diamond found in the rough is exactly that, a rough appearing glass-like stone. The diamond must be painstakingly cut by man to give it smooth faces and a geometrical shape.
In fact, Herkimer Diamonds are not diamonds. A true diamond is one of the hardest elements known to man, scoring a ten on a one to ten hardness scale. Herkimer Diamonds are harder than all quartz crystals. They fall at about 7.5 on the Mohs hardness scale, giving the real diamond a close race. For comparison, many man-made steels barely score a seven on the hardness scale.
This stone is said to energize, enliven, and promote creativity. The smaller, exceptionally clear stones are said to be powerful attunement crystals, stimulating psychic abilities, such as clairvoyance, spiritual vision, and telepathy. It is also said that Herkimer attunes people and links them together when they have to be parted if each person has a stone.

Olivine Volcanic Bomb | Rock Lava Crystal | 150 gr | Mt Shadwell Volcano, Australia
Olivine Volcanic Bomb | Rock Lava Crystal | 150 gr | Mt Shadwell Volcano, Australia
An 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 beautiful slice is completely surrounded by a lava crust and has been polished on both sides.
Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. 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. The breccia is considered an equivalent to suevite impactites in other impact structures. This beautiful slice has dimensions of 110x51x11 mm and weighs 122 grams.

Product Type: White Zircon
Approx Weight (per lot): 2.4tcw
Size: 5x3.3 - 4.4x2.9mm
Shape: Oval Cut
Color: White
Clarity: Clean
Origin: Africa
Zircon comes in a variety of colors, including blue, yellow, green, brown, and red, and is renowned for its exceptional brilliance. It is found in many locations worldwide, including Sri Lanka, Myanmar, Cambodia, and Australia. Some of the oldest zircon crystals have been dated to be over 4 billion years old, making them among the oldest minerals on Earth.
Zircon has a hardness of 6.5 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, making it durable enough for use in various types of jewelry. However, care should be taken to avoid sharp blows and extreme temperatures.
Zircon is associated with promoting spiritual growth, mental clarity, and prosperity. It is also thought to enhance self-confidence and provide protection.
It's important to note the distinction between natural zircon and cubic zirconia. Natural zircon is a genuine gemstone, while cubic zirconia is a synthetic material often used as a diamond simulant.

Tsarev Meteorite | 35.4 Grams | Individual | L5 Chondrite | Fell Dec 1922 | Volgograd Region, Russia
Tsarev Meteorite | 35.4 Grams | Individual | L5 Chondrite | Fell Dec 1922 | Volgograd Region, Russia
This is a superb individual Tsarev meteorite weighing 35.4 grams. Its dimensions are 48x24x19 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.
Quartz crystals are among the most abundant and well-known minerals on Earth. It belongs to the hexagonal crystal system, and typically forms six-sided prismatic crystals with a pointed termination. Its crystals can be colorless or exhibit a wide range of colors. The color variations are often due to the presence of impurities or trace elements during the crystal's formation. Quartz is transparent to translucent.
This is a very nice specimen of clear quartz crystals form Fisher Mountain, near Mount Ida. This beautiful crystal has excellent clarity, and the tip is in perfect condition.
