Here we have for you a nice looking individual of a Sahara Desert NWA unclassified meteorite weighing 295.67 grams. Its dimensions are 91x47x60mm. This never classified North West Africa stone was found in the Sahara desert around 2000.

It's a good quality individual NWA meteorite specimen. Some weathering shows the meteorite's time spent aging in the desert. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Another beautiful specimen featuring large cubic green apophyllite with delicate scolecite.  

Stilbite is a zeolite mineral appreciated for its delicate crystal formations and pastel hues, ranging from colorless to white, yellow, pink, and peach.  It forms distinctive tabular crystals with a bowtie or butterfly shape and exhibits a vitreous to pearly luster. Commonly found in cavities in volcanic rocks, stilbite is associated with other zeolite minerals. It is valued for its aesthetic appeal and is believed by some to have calming energy, supporting spiritual growth and emotional healing.

One of the distinguishing features of apophyllite is its ability to form well-defined crystals with a pyramid-like shape. These crystals often exhibit a prismatic or pseudo-cubic habit and have a vitreous luster. Apophyllite is transparent to translucent and is commonly found in colorless or white varieties, although it can also occur in shades of green, pink, yellow, or brown.

Scolecite forms as vertically striated, thin, prismatic crystals.  Scolecite may also occur as radiating fibrous masses.  The colour may be white, yellowish, or colourless.  It is a transparent to translucent mineral, and it has a vitreous to silky luster.

This specimen shows a group of well-shaped emerald-green dioptase crystals on pearly white calcite crystals . Dioptase is an uncommon copper mineral prized for its intense green colour. It is found in only a few copper mines world-wide, but the best examples come from Tsumeb, Namibia.

The Tsumeb Mine, one of the most famous mineral localities globally, produced dioptase with deep green hues, high clarity, and sharp crystal formations. Unlike dioptase from other locations, Tsumeb specimens often occur on a contrasting white calcite matrix, enhancing their visual appeal.

The Tsumeb Mine in Namibia is no longer actively producing dioptase. The mine, which was one of the world’s most famous mineral localities, ceased large-scale operations in the 1990s. While some minerals can still be found from old stockpiles, no new dioptase specimens are being extracted from the mine today.  This makes Tsumeb dioptase highly collectible, as no fresh supply is entering the market. Existing specimens, especially those with deep color, good transparency, and well-formed crystals on matrix, are increasingly rare and valuable among collectors

Dioptase is often associated with emotional healing, forgiveness, and heart chakra energy. Some believe it encourages letting go of past wounds and embracing compassion. It is also thought to promote inner clarity and transformation, making it popular for personal growth and emotional balance.

This is a 620 gram impact melt rock from the Gallejaur Crater, northern Sweden.  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.

Rocks, interpreted as impact generated lithologies, occur in a large area surrounding the Gallejaur magnetic structure at latitude 65°10/longitude 19°30 in northernmost Västerbotten County in northern Sweden. These rocks comprise a variety of different types of breccias: authigenic The Gallejaur structure is located in the central part of the Skellefte mining district in the Precambrian Baltic Shield. The ca. 1.9 Ga old Skellefte district is an extensively mineralized, mainly felsic, submarine volcanic belt.  The rocks are described as impact-generated, have been called the Vargfors Group and overlie the Skellefte volcanics and sediments with an angular unconformity.  The youngest rocks in the area, intruding the Skellefte district supracrustals and probably the impact-generated rock, are A/I-type granitoids belonging to the Revsund-Adak granite suite, which have been dated at ca. 1.80 to 1.78 Ga.

This great bookend slab displays very well.  It has a mass of 190x97x39 mm.  Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
