Unit price perThis is a fantastic crusted 10 grams NWA (Northwest Africa) 869 L3-6 classified meteorite individual found by Nomads in the Sahara Desert. The dimensions of the specimen are 21x15x16 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).
Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Unit price perThese are whole, uncut lava coated volcanic bombs from Mortlake, Victoria, Australia . The lava crust on these pieces is complete, they can be showcased as is or cut 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.
The dimensions and weight of each of these olivine bombs are as follows:
A. 32x25x17 mm / 1.3x1.0x0.7 in | 14.2 gr / 0.5 oz
B. 37x25x22 mm / 1.5x1.0x0.9 in | 23 gr / 0.8 oz
C. 43x34x21 mm / 1.7x1.3x0.8 in | 37 gr / 1.3 oz
D. 49x44x34 mm / 1.9x1.7x1.3 in | 63.6 gr / 2.2 oz
E. 66x44x33 mm / 2.6x1.7x1.3 in | 113.5 gr / 4.0 oz
F. 79x48x38 mm / 3.1x1.9x1.5 in | 145.4gr / 5.1 oz
Any of these Olivine Bombs would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Unit price perThis is a fantastic Impactite Fallback Breccia from Germany weighing 69.2 grams and measuring 72x66x10mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites and shatter cones are directly linked to them and their impacts. The Steinheim Basin today exhibits a distinct morphological depression that is ∼110 m deep and ∼3.5 km in diameter; the height of the central uplift totals to more than 140 m. The original size of the pristine crater is estimated to be ∼3.8 km with an original depth of ∼205 m.
As this drainless morphological depression was filled by lake sediments shortly after the impact, the primary crater morphology is widely preserved. The crater rim is formed by steeply inclined and intensely brecciated Upper Jurassic limestone blocks that also contain numerous shattered chert nodules, as well as some loose blocks of the host limestone. An impact breccia, referred to as the so-called ”Primäre Beckenbrekzie” (“primary basin breccia”) and interpreted as a “fallback breccia”, is known from many drillings in the Steinheim Basin.
Mainly composed of Middle to Upper Jurassic limestones, marls, mudstones, and sandstones, the impact breccia inside the morphological depression of the Steinheim Basin is overlain by lake sediments and is obviously preserved in its original thickness and position. This piece displays very well and is a very nice size showing multiple characteristics of its origin. Would make a beautiful addition to any collection.

Unit price perSodalite is usually found in the massive form, rather than crystals. Its name is derived from its sodium content. This stone is frequently found with lapis lazuli, but contains little or no golden pyrite specks in it as lapis does. It may, however, contain patches or streaks of white calcite. Although some people think that sodalite resembles lapis in some ways, it is entirely different in chemical composition and has more of a navy blue coloring.
Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a nice fossilized Trilobite in host rock from Morocco. Trilobites are the most diverse group of extinct animals preserved in the fossil record. Nine orders of trilobite are recognized, into which 15,000+ species are placed. Trilobites are remarkable, hard-shelled, segmented creatures that existed over 300 million years ago in the Earth's ancient seas. They went extinct before dinosaurs even came into existence, and are one of the key signature creatures of the Paleozoic Era, the first era to exhibit a proliferation of the complex life-forms that established the foundation of life as it is today. Although dinosaurs are the most well-known fossil life forms, trilobites are also a favorite among those familiar with Paleontology (the study of the development of life on Earth), and are found in the rocks of all continents.
The Trilobite itself measures 12x14 mm, the entire host rock is 58x53 mm. This specimen is great as a teaching tool in the home or in the classroom, or as a gift. It can also be used for science projects and other types craft displays. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

Unit price perThis stunning Aegirine on Microcline crystal, with Quartz and Limonite, is the perfect combination for those looking for a unique and beautiful addition to their mineral collection!
Aegirine, also known as acmite, is a rare and stunning black mineral. It is found in many locations around the world, but its most prized specimens come from Mount Malosa in Malawi, where it is often found in association with Microcline.
Aegirine is usually black, greenish-black, or brownish-black in color and has a glassy or vitreous luster. It has a hardness of 6 to 6.5 on the Mohs scale, which means it is relatively hard and durable. Aegirine is also known for its straight, needle-like crystals that can grow up to several centimeters in length.
Microcline, a member of the feldspar mineral family, is known for its beautiful color variations and distinctive twinning patterns. When paired with Aegirine, the result is a striking and eye-catching contrast of colors.
Aegirine is believed to have properties associated with protection, energy balancing, and spiritual growth. Microcline, being a feldspar, is often linked to creativity and intuition. The combination of these minerals is thought to enhance their individual metaphysical properties
