Unit price perTagish Lake Meteorite | 41 mg | Fragment | C2-ung Class | Observed Fall 2000 Canada | SO24
$160.00 CAD
Unit price perName: Tagish Lake
Date - Fall: 18 January 2000 at 08:43 pst
Class: Carbonaceous chondrite (C2, ungrouped)
Weight: Fragment 41 mg
Origin: Tagish Lake, British Columbia , Canada
This is a nice fragment of the Tagish Lake meteorite. On 18 January 2000 at 08:43 local time a huge fireball followed by loud detonations was widely observed over the Yukon Territory and northern British Columbia. An individual, Jim Brook, recovered several dozen meteorites totaling ~1 kg on the ice of Taku Arm, Tagish Lake, on January 25 and 26. The total mass collected was between 5 and 10 kg most of which is in permanent institutional storage.
Very little of this material is available and what is available is in very small fragments. This is a nice piece that weighs 41 milligrams. Based on mineralogy, isotopic compositions, and bulk chemical compositions, Tagish Lake appears to be intermediate between CM and CI chondrites. It has significantly less amino acids than expected and it may be a very primitive carbonaceous chondrite, class C2 ungr.
Don't miss your chance to add this rarely offered location to your collection. Specimen is accompanied by a Canagem Meteorite Collection specimen card and is housed in a display box.

Bruderheim Meteorite | 1.88gr | Part Slice | L6 Class | Observed Fall 1960 Canada | SO24
$158.00 CAD
Unit price perBruderheim Meteorite | 1.88gr | Part Slice | L6 Class | Observed Fall 1960 Canada | SO24
$158.00 CAD
Unit price perOn March 4th, 1960 at 1:06 a.m., a bright fireball, now know as the Bruderheim Meteorite, tore through Earth's atmosphere above Central Alberta. The space rock travelled at 42 kilometres per second, its flash witnessed by hundreds of people as far away as the Rocky Mountain region of British Columbia. The giant rock detonated, creating a sound shock wave audible over 5,000 square kilometres. The sonic boom rattled windows, shook the foundations of homes, and startled families from their sleep. Shards of the stone rained down just north of Bruderheim, some forming pits as deep as 30 centimetres, many rebounding off the frozen ground and landing on the snow.
Based on eye-witness reports, it is believed that the meteorite was first observed by Alexis Simon, a resident of the Paul’s Band Indian Reserve at Duffield, Alberta. He noted the north-easterly direction of the rock, its swift speed, and that it looked like it was giving off ‘flashes of fire’. He also described a rushing sound that resembled a high wind and lasted about 5 seconds after the fireball passed.
Hundreds of grit- and pebble-sized fragments were collected off of river ice. Undoubtedly many thousands of small fragments were not seen against the black dirt of fields and plowed under as farmers prepared to seed their crops.
Nearly 700 meteorite fragments were found with a total weight of over 660 pounds—making it the largest recovered fall in Canadian history. This nice crusted part slice specimen will be a prized item in your collection.
This hard to acquire piece is a high quality specimen that would make an amazing addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Jensen Meteorites and a Canagem Collection specimen cards.

"Only one piece of the strange visitor has, so far as we have heard at time of writing, been found. It is a 12.5-pound chunk which struck the ground within a couple of feet of the verandah on the residence of John Shields, about three miles from Shelburne and Horning’s Mills, spattering earth up against the side of the house and imbedding itself to the depth of 18 inches. The stone was dug out of the ground on Monday morning and brought to town, and it has since been on exhibition in the window of Jelly and White's hardware store, where it has been viewed by a whole shoal of people." - Shelburne Economist, 18 August 1904
Shelbourne is an L5 veined chondrite from Canada. Rarely are Canadian meteorites other than Bruderheim or Abee offered to the public, especially when outside Canada. The restrictive laws governing the ownership and transfer of Canadian meteorites in Canada make this a special chance to own a sample of Shelbourne. Don't miss your chance to add this rarely offered and historical location to your collection. Specimen is accompanied by a collection label from the Martin Horejsi Meteorite Collection

Libyan Desert Glass | Natural Impact Glass | 5 Grams | Authentic Impactite | SO24
$27.00 CAD
Unit price perLibyan Desert Glass | Natural Impact Glass | 5 Grams | Authentic Impactite | SO24
$27.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a rare and fantastic 5 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 27x19x12 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.
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.

On this specimen, there are beautiful iridescent olivine crystals growing on the outside of the lava crust. This piece is complete and can be showcased as is or it can be opened to show the interior. The lava is most likely covering green olivine crystals.
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.

Unit price perNWA 869 Meteorite | 5.1 Grams | Individual | L3-6 Chondrite | Crusted Specimen | SO24
$10.20 CAD
Unit price perThis is a fantastic crusted 5.1 grams NWA (Northwest Africa) 869 L3-6 classified meteorite individual found by Nomads in the Sahara Desert. The dimensions of the specimen are 21x14x10 mm. This specimen comes from the Hupé Collection.
NWA 869 classified meteorites can still be interesting and this one is for sure perfectly shaped to catch your attention. It displays a superb crust on most of its surface. Most samples are individual meteorites but some fragments (mostly >1 kg) also occur. In most cases the fusion crust has been polished or ablated by wind erosion. Many samples are more severely affected and show faces with deep wind erosion features. Fracture faces, formed by ground collision, show a typical gray-green color and sometimes visible brecciation (light and/or dark clasts).
