This is a great looking part slice of the Kabo H4 classified meteorite. It weighs 0.75 grams and measures 11x9x2 mm. The Kabo meteorite fell on April 25, 1971, at about 4:30 p.m. local time (1530 GMT), in Kabo, Gwarzo District, Kano State, Nigeria. The total known weight of the meteorite is 13.4 kg.
The shower occurred on a Sunday afternoon while farmers were in their fields. Sound directions and crater asymmetry indicated that the meteorite approached from the west. "Thunder-like sounds were heard consecutively and these were followed by the inclined descent of a reddish object with trails of cloudy smoke following it". During the following week the District Head collected the specimens and forwarded them to the Emir of Kano. One specimen was recovered in two pieces of about 3 kg each, one stone weighed over 5 kg, one almost 3 kg, and the smallest 0.9 kg.
The specimen comes with a Michael Cottingham Collection and a Canagem Collection specimen card. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Iceland Spar, also known as optical calcite, is a clear, transparent variety of calcite famous for its unique optical property called double refraction. When you place the crystal over text or an image, it appears doubled — a visual effect that occurs because light splits into two rays as it passes through the crystal. This fascinating trait made Iceland spar historically important in early optical instruments and scientific studies, including navigation and the development of polarizing microscopes.
It’s typically colorless or very lightly tinted and forms naturally in sharp, rhombohedral shapes. High-quality Iceland spar is most famously found in Iceland, though it also occurs in places like Mexico, the U.S., and China.
Iceland Spar (optical calcite) is often associated with clarity, insight, and truth. Because of its double refraction property, some see it as a symbol of seeing beyond surface appearances — helping to highlight different perspectives or reveal hidden aspects of a situation. It's thought to support clear thinking and honest communication, making it a favorite for meditation or decision-making spaces.
