This is a rare and fantastic 3.9 gram Libyan Desert Glass from Kuffra, Libya, with dimensions of 29x18x8 mm.  Although its exact origin is still debated, the leading theory suggests it was formed by a high-energy event, such as a meteoric impact or airburst, that melted the desert sand directly where it lay, without being ejected into the atmosphere and re-entering. This results in different physical characteristics compared to tektites.

Libyan Desert Glass is found specifically in the Great Sand Sea of the Eastern Sahara, within a more localized area spanning parts of western Egypt and eastern Libya.  Characterized by its yellow to greenish-yellow color, it lacks the aerodynamic shapes of tektites and often appears as irregularly shaped pieces. It is almost pure silica (around 98%) with very few impurities. Throughout history, it has been regarded as a mystical and powerful material, sometimes used in talismans and amulets.

This piece displays extremely well and is a quality translucent specimen. It has an aesthetic shape with a beautiful wind eroded body from the years spent in the Desert. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a fantastic crystallized pyrite core sample.   The specimen is rounded with brassy pyrite crystals.  A pyrite mine core sample is a cylindrical piece of rock, often several inches in diameter, extracted from the earth by a drilling rig to explore for pyrite deposits. These samples are used to physically examine the rock's geology, identify different mineral types like pyrite, and measure their abundance and distribution. Core samples are critical for determining the economic viability of a mine and are analyzed using methods such as visual inspection, microscopic examination, and chemical techniques.

This top specimen is in perfect condition. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is the exact Moldavite gemstone you will receive.

Moldavite is a rare, greenish gemstone formed by the impact of a meteorite. It is a type of tektite, which is a natural glass created from terrestrial material that melted during the intense heat of meteor impacts. Moldavite is believed to have been formed around 15 million years ago when a massive meteorite hit what is now the southern Germany and Czech Republic region, forming the Ries Impact Structure. The impact ejected material into the atmosphere, which later cooled and fell back to Earth as moldavite, primarily in the region of the Czech Republic.  The most well-known deposits are located near the Moldau River, from which it gets its name.  It is found in small quantities, making it relatively rare. 

Moldavite has a distinct green color, ranging from pale olive green to deep forest green. Some specimens even have a slight brownish tint.  It often has a wrinkled or pitted surface, a characteristic of its formation process.

This is a great 17.7 gram KT-boundary clay from Zealand, Denmark, a UNESCO World Heritage site.  What makes Stevns Klint a UNESCO site inscribed in 2014 is the visible layer of fish clay and exceptional fossil record at the K-T boundary (Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary) along the cliff.  The KT-boundary clay at Stevns Klint is both impactite and a deposit containing fossils. It is considered impactite because the layer is composed of debris from the Chicxulub meteorite impact, including the iridium-rich "fish clay," which is evidence of the extraterrestrial event. It is also rich in fossils because the clay and surrounding rock strata contain evidence of the mass extinction and the recovery of marine life that followed.  

Stevns Klint, known as the Cliffs of Stevns in English, is a white chalk cliff located some 6 km (3.7 mi) southeast of Store Heddinge on the Danish island of Zealand. Stretching 17 km (11 mi) along the coast, it is of geological importance as one of the best exposed Cretaceous-Tertiary (K/T) boundaries in the world. Subject to frequent erosion, the cliff rises to a height of up to 40 m (130 ft).

Stevns Klint holds exceptional evidence of the Chicxulub meteorite impact that triggered the fifth mass extinction around 66 million years ago. This catastrophic event wiped out the dinosaurs and nearly 50% of all life on Earth, that paved the way of life as we know it today.

Most offerings are of macro size specimen so this is a rarely seen large example coming from the world renown Mr Christian Anger of Austria. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Austromet  and a Canagem Collection specimen card.
