$28.00 CAD
Unit price perTatahouine Green Meteorite | 0.35 Grams | Individual | Diogenite | 1931 Rare Observed Fall | Tunisia
$28.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a great fragment of the Tatahouine meteorite which is classified as a stone achondrite, Diogenite (ADIO) Ca-poor. It weighs 0.35 grams and measures 8x6x5 mm. This rare meteorite fell on June 27, 1931 at 0130 hours about 2 1/2 mi. NE of the village of Foum Tatahouine, Tunisia.
This rare Diogenite broke into thousands of small fragments, most no larger than a gram. The large mass broke up near the earth's surface and as a result fusion crust is virtually absent, making this a difficult meteorite to recognize. If it had not been witnessed, it most likely would never have been found. Tatahouine is one of a few meteorites that is only available in small sizes, most are under 1 gram.
This piece is a very desirable type of material and a great specimen all around. The specimen comes in a display box and is accompanied by a Meteor Passion Collection and a Canagem® Collection card. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

Dhofar 020 Meteorite | 17.15 Grams | Individual | H4-5 Shocked Chondrite | Sahara Y2K
$50.00 CAD
Unit price perDhofar 020 Meteorite | 17.15 Grams | Individual | H4-5 Shocked Chondrite | Sahara Y2K
$50.00 CAD
Unit price perHere we have for you a superb looking Dhofar 020 classified meteorite weighing 17.15 grams. Its dimensions are 31x19x20 mm. Found 10 March 2000 in Dhofar, Oman, in the Arabian Peninsula this H4/5 classified chondrite has a TKW of 256 Kg with a shock stage of S4 and weathering grade of W3 by the Russian Academy of Sciences, USSR.
Dhofar 020 is an ordinary stone chondrite meteorite. The meteorite is high in free metal and therefore falls in the H class. S4 tells it is highly shocked. Slices of the meteorite, show veins of the cosmic impact created mineral Ringwoodite, although fractures in the stone tend to hide this some. It almost appears to me to have splinted upon impact. The meteorite falls in 4-5 petrology class, a reference to how metamorphed the meteorite is from its original state. This is judged by studying a thin section of the meteorite, most visually at the chondrules, a feature unique to stone meteorite. In a thin section under polarized light, pyroxene chondrules seem more common then their olivine pair. Still some regions in the meteorite show scattered patches of bright olivine inclusions. These are fairly rare, at least on my thin section, and most of the meteorite's olivine and pyroxene, some of the easier things to see in a thin section, appear to have went through a metamorphism, and have "melted" into the matrix and are at times undistinguishable.
This piece displays extremely well, it has a beautiful crust and is a good size. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Michael Farmer Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen card.
