This is a rare and fantastic 17.10 Ct. or 3.42 grams Moldavite Melt Glass impactite found in Chlum Region, Czech Republic, in 2004.  It has dimensions of 22x20x7mm. 

Moldavite is a green/olive earthen melt glass, created by a massive Meteorite Impact at the Noerdlinger Ries in Bavaria, Germany, about 14.8 million years ago.  This molten globules then rained down after their space flight in the Moldau River Valley, north of Prague in the Czech Republic. Hence the name Moldavite. They were discovered at the end of the 18th century.

This piece displays extremely well and is a quality translucent specimen worthy of only the best collections. It has an aesthetic shape with a beautiful pitted body. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

The SaW 005 meteorite samples were found in the vicinity of the Franconia H5 strewn field in 2004. Reportedly hundreds of pieces from this fall, the majority of which are under 1 g, have been found by a number of meteorite hunters as well.  It is now believed that about 1 Kg of material was found with the largest piece weighing less than 44 grams.  This is one of 8 approved meteorites classified as H-metal with 4 from Antartica and the other 4 from Arizona(Yucca)

The total mass of the two pieces is 52.3 g. A mass of 8.60 g was found by Pete Meyers on May 18, 2004 (UA2006), and a mass of 43.7 g was found by Jim Smaller on October 29, 2005 (UA2026). The surfaces of both samples are indistinguishable. No fusion crust is present, although bluish fusion crust with flow lines was observed on other samples that were studied. Both meteorites are reddish-brown, have rounded edges, mildly weathered surfaces, fresh interiors, and pits on the surface that are due to inclusions that were plucked out during atmospheric entry or weathering.

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

This is a must have 86.6-gram Impact Melt Breccia also referred to as Suevite coming from the famous Ries crater Germany. 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. This impactite was formed 14.5 million years ago in Malmian or Jurassic limestone when a meteorite crashed into the earth making a ~10 miles wide crater named the Ries crater in Germany. This gorgeous end piece displays very well and shows typical inclusions of glass bomb as the dark material and crystalline fragments visible throughout the specimen showing the stages of shock metamorphism.

It is amazingly light considering its mass of 122.9 x 79 x 9.4 mm.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This spectacular rock specimen consists of alternating layers of light blue-green amazonite and light grey smoky quartz topped by a biotite mica (muscovite) crystal. This special material is found in proximity of pegmatite melts to the surrounding country rock and is the result of quick cooling of the melt.

The term graphic originates from the Greek word Graphos or the Latin word Graphus which means to write. It denotes the script-like appearance that resembles cuneiform or runic writings where the darker, glassy quartz appears as letters or characters written on a lighter or whitish feldspar groundmass. This top specimen has it all and is in great condition. Will mesmerize you for hours examining all angles of this fantastic specimen. Would be an amazing addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a stunning Henbury  classified meteorite weighing approx. 7 grams. Its dimensions are 22x14x7 mm.  This Iron (IIIAB) Medium Octahedrite classified meteorite was found in the Northern Territory of Australia in 1931. So far approximately 2T of this material have been recovered. This piece displays extremely well.  This Australian find is very well shaped and preserved. These pieces are becoming more difficult to acquire so this is a good time to get a fine specimen.

Henbury fell 8 miles southwest of the town of Henbury, Australia almost 10,000 years ago. RA Alderman investigated the site in May 1931 based upon Aborigine stories. He found 13 craters, the largest of which was 720 x 360 feet. Few meteorites were found in the largest three craters indicating an explosive impact. Some of the Henbury meteorites are shrapnel shaped indicating this explosive ending and some have smooth edges indicating abrasion by an atmospheric passage.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Will come with Canagem Collection and Collecting Space specimen cards and a Riker box mount with stand.

This is a superb looking Stony-iron or Mesosiderite officially unclassified but most likely paired with the Northwest Africa NWA 2924 classified meteorite; this amazing specimen is an end cut weighing 38.5 grams. Its dimensions are 33x32x18 mm.

The NWA 2924 states that over 180 kg (several thousand pieces) have been recovered in 2005 from a small strewn field in Algeria. The largest known piece weighs about 5000 g; most are small pieces that weigh less than 200 g.  The classification of the NWA 2924 is a Mesosiderite with low shock, variable degree of weathering dependent on the specimen size and most likely paired also with the NWA 2932 and 2945.

This end cut displays extremely well and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with both a Canagem Collection and a Nakhla Dog Meteorites specimen card.

Here we have for you a nice looking individual fragment of a Sahara Desert NWA unclassified meteorite weighing 18 grams. Its dimensions are 35x33x16mm. This never classified North West Africa stone was found in the Sahara desert around 2000.
