Stone Meteorites

This is a great looking Northwest Africa 2521 H/L3.7 classified meteorite end cut.  It weighs 2.472 grams and measures 14x13x7 mm. This meteorite was found in the Sahara Desert in 2004 and has a total recovered weight recorded as a very low 47.8 grams.  It has a Shock stage of 3/4 and a Weathering grade of 2.  A very good cut, ground and polished end cut. 

This is the only approved meteorite classified as H/L3.7

The specimen comes with a Meteoritica and a   Canagem Collection specimen card. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a superb whole specimen of the famous Northwest Africa 2965 meteorite weighing 63.49 grams. This is a beautiful specimen from the Thomas Phillips Meteorite Collection.

Its dimensions are 49x42x29 mm. This North West Africa was classified originally as an Enstatite EL6/7, then later as an EL3 and finally an EL-Melt Rock meteorite which was found along with the rest of the total mass of more than 100 Kilograms in the Algerian Desert in August 2005.  This is one of the oldest meteorites on our planet in terms of terrestrial age and has been referred to as a fossil meteorite. 

This Enstatite chondrite shock Level is minimal and weathering varies from 2 to 5. This piece displays extremely well and if cut would show a completely recrystallized enstatite chondrite with polygonal to irregular grain outlines. The grain size varies from 0.02 to 0.7 mm. Round, curved, blocky objects contain coarser-grained orthopyroxene than in the matrix. No relict chondrules were observed.

This hard to acquire piece displays very well with its prehistoric look.  As highlighted in the photos, there are grains of sand still wedged into one of the crevices of the specimen.  This rare and quality specimen would make an amazing addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with specimen card.

Here we have for you a nice looking end cut of a Sahara Desert NWA unclassified meteorite weighing 224 grams. Its dimensions are 59x58x37mm. This never classified North West Africa stone was found in the Sahara desert around 2000.

It's a good quality cut NWA meteorite specimens showing interesting internal structure (L5?) and somewhat attractive with a mottled interior with chondrules and metallic flakes. Some weathering shows the meteorite's time spent aging in the desert. Displays nicely with a ground and rough polished without a mirror finish.

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

This is a superb individual Tsarev meteorite weighing 60.4 grams. Its dimensions are 47x40x20 mm. Twenty-eight specimens of this L5 classified meteorite were found in fields.  The largest mass weighs 284 kg, the smallest 761 gr with a total weight of 1.23 Tons. The greatest distance between the find sites was 6.0 km.

In 1968, amidst a global surge in conflicts, a remarkable discovery was made in a small village in Volgograd Oblast. This region, known as the primary site of the Battle of Stalingrad—one of the largest and bloodiest battles in history—yielded an extraordinary find in the quiet fields near the rural village of Tsarev.

The Tsarev meteorite, named after the Russian word for czar, is a stone meteorite responsible for one of the largest meteorite showers in Russian history. This meteorite shower occurred on December 6, 1922, but the stones were not discovered until 1968 and only recognized in 1979. The Tsarev meteorite's mineral composition matches that of ordinary chondrites, including olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, maskelynite, calcium phosphates, nickel-iron, troilite, chromite, ilmenite, and rutile.

Academic analysis of the Tsarev meteorite reveals significant features: large grains of nickel-iron, light grey areas with well-preserved chondritic texture, and dark areas containing a matrix with olivine grains and remnants of chondrules. 

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

This is an incredible Korra Korrabes meteorite end cut of 24.1 grams, it measures 37x27x22 mm. This gorgeous classified meteorite is an H3 Chondrite and part of a 22 kg stone plus 11 smaller pieces totaling ~18 kg that were found November 1996 in a dry river bed by a farmer who was searching for Gibeon irons.

People searching with metal detectors recovered hundreds of additional buried, more weathered pieces within 50 m of the original material since 2000 November, bringing the total mass to ~120–130 kg. The largest specimen was used in a garden wall until August 2000.

This amazing piece was professionally prepared and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
