Abee Meteorite | 0.31gr | Part Slice | Rare Enstatite | EH4 Class | Observed Fall 1952 Canada | SO24

This is an incredible part slice of the Abee meteorite (MB 8) that fell in Alberta, Canada at 11:05 p.m. on June 9th 1952.  It took five days to find it in a wheat field belonging to Mr. Harry Buryn.  It is located in the community of Abee, Alberta, Canada in Thorhild County, along the Canadian National Railway and Highway 63, 16 km north of Thorhild and 49 km from Boyle.

This rare and highly collectable EH4 Enstatite chondrite is 1 of only 21 approved meteorites classified as such, 1 of 3 being an observed fall and only 1 of 5 not found in Antarctica. The total Mass is registered at 107 Kilograms in one stone recovered from a 6 ft (1.8 m) deep crater.  This is a great specimen at .31 grams.

This hard to acquire piece is a high quality specimen that would make an amazing addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with an official COA from the New England Meteoritical Services, a Michael Farmer Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen card and is protected in a display box.
