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.

This beautiful slice is completely surrounded by a lava crust and has been polished on both sides. 

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is an outstanding specimen Impact Melt Glass, or "Flädle" glass, from the Lake Mien crater, 12 km (7.5 mi) southwest of the town of Tingsryd, Sweden.   It weighs 16.5 grams and measures 41x35x7 mm.  Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts.

Impactite is a slag-like glassy object found on the surface of the earth, formed from rock melted by the impact of a meteorite. The term encompasses shock-metamorphosed target rocks, melts or suevites and mixtures of the two, as well as sedimentary rocks with significant impact-derived components and shocked mineral grains, tektites, anomalous geochemical signatures, etc.

This eroded crater is marked by a 5.5-km (3.4-mi) diameter circular lake named Lake Mien. The original crater rim is estimated to have been about 9 km in diameter before erosion. Its age is estimated to be 121.0 ± 2.3 million years (Early Cretaceous).  This Suevitic breccia with clastic matrix and melt inclusions (black) and crystalline rock clasts (gray to white) is amazingly light considering its mass.   It has a unique hollow sound when you tap it.

This is a must have 9.12 gram Impactite, monomict impact breccia from the Agoudal, Imilchil impact structure, Morocco.  Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts and are probably going to be one of the rarest collection items you'll ever own. Impactite is a slag-like glassy object found on the surface of the earth, formed from rock melted by the impact of a meteorite.

The term impactite encompasses shock-metamorphosed target rocks, melts or suevites and mixtures of the two, as well as sedimentary rocks with significant impact-derived components and shocked mineral grains, tektites, anomalous geochemical signatures, etc. According to the state of conservation of the meteorite into the sedimentary layers "Soltanian" and the dating of ancient lake sediments of the Isli lake, we can estimate their age limit to 40,000 years. 

More than 183 structures of meteoritical impacts are highlighted on the Earth, including only three reported dual impact craters. The impact craters of Isli and Tislit are respectively located at 10 km and 4 km from the Imilchil village on the Central High Atlas in Morocco at respective altitudes of 2272 and 2266 meters. They are spaced apart from each other by 9.4 km. The origin and the date of formation of these two lakes are still unknown today. Surveys undertaken near them and in the surrounding areas leads to believe that they correspond to a dual meteoritical impact crater.

Polymict and monomict breccias were observed at the edges of these craters but they don’t form big masses because of erosion. They consist of irregular fragments with millimeter and centimeter sizes, in a carbonate matrix. In the breccias collected on the southern edges of the Isli crater, we noted the presence of several shocked quartz grains in planar structures associated with rolling extinction, indicators of shock metamorphism. 

This gorgeous specimen displays very well with a mass of 31x24x16 mm. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This Henbury glass, or more specifically vesicular impactite, was found in the Northern Territory of Australia. Thirteen craters were found 8 miles southwest of the town of Henbury, the largest of which was 720 x 360 feet.  Henbury impactite was formed by a meteorite impact that occurred around 4,700 years ago. The meteorite is believed to have exploded upon entering the Earth's atmosphere, creating multiple craters which produced the impact glass.

This is a 16.51 gram Grey Melt Rock from the Köfels Structure, Austria. It measures 43x27x13 mm.  The specific origin of kofelsite rocks is uncertain & debated. The rocks are found in a landslide deposit in western Austria. Researchers have suggested that the landslide was impact-triggered. The kofelsite samples in the landslide deposit thus may be impactites (fused rocks from the heat of impact). Some workers have suggested that the rocks are frictionites (fused rocks from landslide heating).

The Köfels landslide was a huge mountain rockslide (a Sturzstrom) that occurred in the Austrian Alps about 9800 years ago near the present day village of Köfels. Some of its features mystified geologists for quite some time. One hypothesis was that it had been caused by an asteroid impact — a Köfels impact event — but more recent research has rejected the idea. This didn't stop a pair of British engineers from publishing a book that claims that a) it was an asteroid impact, b) it inspired a lot of myths, and c) it was recorded on an ancient Sumerian clay tablet.

The reason for the original impact hypothesis was the presence of fused rock. At the time, the only processes known to be able to do this were either volcanism or meteor impacts. Later research found that it can be also produced by friction and similar fused rock has been found in other large rockslides.

This specimen displays very well even if not proven to be meteorite impact related.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Moissanite has become a popular alternative to diamonds for jewelry.  Moissanites have a similar appearance to diamonds and often look nearly identical to the untrained eye. They share the brilliance, sparkle, and fire that diamonds are known for, making them an attractive choice. With moissanite, it is possible to have a beautiful gemstone for a fraction of the price of a diamond.  Moissanites are primarily produced in laboratories, offering a controlled and consistent quality. This aspect appeals to those who prefer gemstones with known origins and minimal environmental impact.

Originally discovered in a meteorite crater, Moissanite is well known worldwide as the world’s most brilliant gemstone, better than diamonds. Moissanite is incredibly rare in its natural form; however, lab created moissanite is identical to the original with hardness second only to diamond.  Moissanites have a hardness of 9.25 on the Mohs scale, while  diamonds are a 10.  This makes moissanite suitable for everyday wear and less prone to scratching or damage.

This sparkling round cut moissanite is a great choice for any jewelry project.

This is an individual Northwest Africa or NWA 4293 formerly known as NQ10, an H6 chondrite found in the Sahara desert in 2005.  It is one of 5854 approved meteorites classified as such. The meteorite weighs 5.3 grams with dimensions of 18x17x9 mm.  

This fascinating meteorite was mainly found as small individuals and the total weight of the 100's of pieces recovered is recorded as a low 25 kg. The meteorite has a shock stage of 4 and weathering grade of 2.  NWA 4293 is interesting in the way it looks as can be seen in the images.  Most pieces are free of caliche, have a smooth gray surface and are small complete individuals.  The unusual appearance is due to shock hardening and being sandblasted in the desert.

This specimen comes with a Canagem specimen card.  Would make a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.
