Astrophyllite is a striking and rare mineral known for its bronze to golden-bladed crystals that radiate like starbursts, often embedded in a dark matrix of other minerals. The name comes from Greek, meaning “star leaf,” referring to its star-like crystal formations. It  is found in locations such as Russia, Norway, Greenland, and Canada.  This specimen of Astrophyllite and Natrolite crystals originates from the world famous site of Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Québec. 

Astrophyllite is often seen as a stone of inner illumination and self-discovery. Some believe it helps reveal hidden potential and encourages personal truth, making it a supportive companion during times of change or reflection. It’s sometimes associated with letting go of the past and embracing a more authentic path forward.

Natrolite is an uncommon zeolite mineral, often found in opaque white crystal clusters as seen on this great specimen.  There are other traces of minerals such as aegirine in this complex matrix in a spectacular shape. 

This specimen is in very good condition and displays very well.  Make this a special specimen in your collection.

Origin: Tanzania

Tanzanite is renowned for its intense blue and violet colors, but can also be golden, green, lilac and peacock (blue and green). The sole source of tanzanite is the Merelani Hills in northern Tanzania. Discovered in the 1960s, tanzanite is considered rarer than diamonds due to its single-source origin. The mines in Tanzania are exhaustible, adding to the gemstone's allure.

With a hardness of 6.5 to 7 on the Mohs scale, tanzanite is relatively soft compared to some other gemstones. As a result, it requires gentle care to prevent scratches or damage.

Tanzanite is believed to aide with spiritual awareness, insight, and communication. Some attribute it with calming energies and the ability to enhance psychic abilities.

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.

This is a must have 22.7 gram Impactite from Norrbo, Sweden.  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 impactite was formed approx. 89 million years ago when a meteorite crashed into the earth.

This gorgeous slice displays very well.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 58x32x10mm.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a rare and fantastic 4.7 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 27x17x11 mm.  Although its exact origin is still debated, the leading theory suggests it was formed by a high-energy event, such as a meteoric impact or airburst, that melted the desert sand directly where it lay, without being ejected into the atmosphere and re-entering. This results in different physical characteristics compared to tektites.

Libyan Desert Glass is found specifically in the Great Sand Sea of the Eastern Sahara, within a more localized area spanning parts of western Egypt and eastern Libya.  Characterized by its yellow to greenish-yellow color, it lacks the aerodynamic shapes of tektites and often appears as irregularly shaped pieces. It is almost pure silica (around 98%) with very few impurities. Throughout history, it has been regarded as a mystical and powerful material, sometimes used in talismans and amulets.

This piece displays extremely well and is a quality translucent specimen. It has an aesthetic shape with a beautiful wind eroded body from the years spent in the Desert. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a great 36.2 gram Impact Melt Breccia from the Gardnos Crater in Norway.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 51x40x9mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts and are probably going to be one of the rarest collection item 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 impactite was formed between 385 and 900 million years ago in Precambrian time when a meteorite crashed into the earth making a ~5 kilometers wide crater locally known as the Hallingdal Impact Crater.
