This is a stunning Veevers classified meteorite weighing 2.67 grams. Mark Bostick said that the specimen was shaped like a bird claw.  He traded the main mass of this amazing meteorite to TCU.  This amazingly well preserved specimen measures 15x8x7 mm. 

The Veevers crater is located in the Gibson Desert of Western Australia. It has a diameter of 60-80 meters across and a depth of about 6-7 meters. The crater's rim is raised 1.5m above the surrounding plain, and contains exposed rocks thrown from the center of the crater. The sides are gravelly rock with a few larger rocks mixed within. The bottom of the crater is covered with sand.  Veevers is isolated in a vast, flat landscape with no other features in sight. Discovered in the mid-1970's and named by Yeates, A.N., Crowe, R.W.A. & Towner, R.R., in 1976, as The Veevers Crater in honor of Australian geologist Prof. John Veevers, for his work at mapping Western Australia.

In 1984, Dr. Carolyn and Eugene Shoemaker investigated meteorite craters and ancient impact structures throughout Australia. Their search recovered thirty-six small meteoritic fragments from the Veevers crater. Their finds totaled 298.1 grams, and included the largest found to date, 36.3g., now cleaned and coated it weighs 37.0 grams. The Veevers fragments have been described as single crystals of kamacite. Kamacite is a metallic iron with up to 7.5% nickel. Since the Shoemaker trip, more meteorite fragments have been found, bringing the total known weight to around 1 kg. The Veevers crater is naturally rich in iron-rich laterite, which makes recovery of small meteorite fragments hard. It is one of only two impact craters where group IIAB meteorites have been discovered. The other being the Sikhote-Alin craters in Eastern Siberia, Russia.

Would be an exceptional and rare addition to any new or existing collection.  This historically important specimen will come in its original Mark Bostick display box and include The Mark Bostick Collection and Canagem Collection specimen cards.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. A great display piece, it comes with a Gi-Po-de Collection and a Canagem Collection specimen card.

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.

The crystal face has been cut and polished to show the red and green olivine crystals which are showcased beautifully against the surrounding lava crust. This museum grade specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
