Unit price perThis is a fabulous 8.69 gram Sericho Pallasite Main Group meteorite, it measures 20x16x17. In 2016, two brothers were searching for their camels and came across several large, dense stones west of the village of Habaswein and south of Sericho, Kenya. Though recognized as meteorites in 2016, the masses had been known to camel-herders for decades. One village elder said that as a child, he and his brothers would play on top of the stones. It is classified as an Iron Pallasite main group with low weathering and is 1 of only 68 approved meteorites classified as such, with a recovered weight of about 2.8 T.
This piece displays extremely well and is a nice size showing great features. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

$26.97 CAD
Unit price perWe have for you a small floater crystal of gypsum var Selenite in a perky box found 1962 in Ellsworth Mahoning County, Ohio U.S.A..
Gypsum is one of the more common minerals in sedimentary environments. It is a major rock forming mineral that produces massive beds, usually from precipitation out of highly saline waters. Since it forms easily from saline water, gypsum can have many inclusions of other minerals and even trapped bubbles of air and water.
This specimen has no damage and will ship in its protective display box.

This is a great 50.7 gram Impact Melt Breccia from the Sääksjärvi crater in Finland. It is amazingly light considering its mass of 54x42x25 mm. Although not a meteorite, impactites are directly linked to them and their impacts and are probably going to be one of the rarest collection item 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.
Sääksjärvi is a lake in Kokemäki, Satakunta, western Finland, east of the town of Pori. The lake is notable because it overlies an impact crater. The crater is 5 kilometres (3 mi) in diameter and is completely buried under the lake and is not visible at the surface. The age of the impact structure is estimated to be about 543 ± 12 Ma (million years ago), at the boundary between the Ediacaran and Cambrian periods. There are impactite rocks in the southwestern region from the crater confirming its extraterrestrial origin. At the time of its discovery, only one impact crater (Lappajärvi) was known in Finland.
Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
Dellenites Impact Melt Rock | 100 grams | HT Tagamite | Dellen Crater, Sweden

Unit price perDellenites Impact Melt Rock | 100 grams | HT Tagamite | Dellen Crater, Sweden
$102.00 CAD
Unit price perThis is a must have 100 gram Impact Melt Rock from the Dellen Crater, north of Stokholm, Sweden. Some locals call these rocks by the name of “dellenites”, although officially they are impact melt rocks. 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 approx. 89 million years ago when a meteorite crashed into the earth making a round crater which is now a lake about 11 miles wide. The term tagamite was introduced in 1975 to describe impact rock from the Popigai crater in Russia. Varieties of tagamites are described based on crystallinity, texture and clast content. HT Tagamite differs from other material due to the complete melting of the crystalline matrix and then being subjected to rapid cooling.
This gorgeous slice displays very well. It is amazingly light considering its mass of 89x57x9 mm. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a stunning Henbury classified meteorite weighing 7.2 grams. Its dimensions are 20x15x8mm. 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.

Pseudomorph Goethite After Marcasite | Prophecy Stone | 45.8 gr | Farafra Oasis, Egypt
$49.63 CAD
Unit price perPseudomorph Goethite After Marcasite | Prophecy Stone | 45.8 gr | Farafra Oasis, Egypt
$49.63 CAD
Unit price perPseudomorphs are mineral specimens that have the external shape of one mineral but are composed of another. The pseudomorph goethite after marcasite forms when marcasite is exposed to oxidizing conditions and starts to oxidize and break down. As the marcasite breaks down, goethite replaces it in the crystal structure, preserving the shape of the original marcasite crystal. The resulting specimen appears as a marcasite crystal, but is actually composed of goethite.
The Farafra Oasis, in the White Desert, has been known for a number of years to deliver incredible pseudomorph specimens. The pseudomorphs occur within the Cretaceous Khoman Chalk, from which the White Desert derives its name.
These specimens are remarkable for their relatively sharp marcasite crystal forms in aesthetic crystal clusters. They are in excellent condition. This collector's specimen is unique, of great quality and ready for display.

Labradorite is an unusual mineral. It can display a beautiful iridescent play of colors, caused by internal fractures in the mineral that reflect light back and forth, dispersing it into different colors. This effect, known as labradorescence, gives Labradorite its appeal and fame.
