This is a superb Nantan meteorite individual specimen directly from Guangxi, China. Its dimensions are 38x22x11 mm and it weighs 16.3 grams.

The Nantan meteorites are a must for all collectors, more so that it is now very difficult to find worthy specimen. They are a very interesting IAB-MG iron discovered in 1958 and there is an estimated 9.5 T of this material. This is 1 of 88 approved meteorites classified as Iron, IAB-MG.

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

This is a nice etched 2.97 gram Seymchan Iron meteorite end cut measuring 21x13x13 mm. The meteorite was found in 1967 in a brook-bed flowing into the river of Hekandue, a left tributary of the river of Jasachnaja of the Magadan district, USSR. It is classified as an Iron Pallasite main group and is 1 of only 48 approved meteorites classified as such, with a recovered weight of about 323 Kg.

This piece was nicely prepared and it is very stable and rust free and will remain like this for years to come with minimal care. This piece displays extremely well and is a desirable size showing great features. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is a nice 3.72 grams Brahin Pallasite stony iron classified meteorite part slice with dimensions 25x23x2 mm.  This rare meteorite was found in Minsk, Gomel Region, Belarus in 1810 and the Total Known Weight is ~ 823 kg.

This piece displays beautifully and is a desirable size showing great features. Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.

This is an individual Northwest Africa or NWA 4293 formerly known as NQ10, an H6 chondrite found in the Sahara desert in 2005.  It is one of 5854 approved meteorites classified as such. The meteorite weighs 3.36 grams with dimensions of 18x15x8 mm.  

This fascinating meteorite was mainly found as small individuals and the total weight of the 100's of pieces recovered is recorded as a low 25 kg. The meteorite has a shock stage of 4 and weathering grade of 2.  NWA 4293 is interesting in the way it looks as can be seen in the images.  Most pieces are free of caliche, have a smooth gray surface and are small complete individuals.  The unusual appearance is due to shock hardening and being sandblasted in the desert.

This specimen comes with a signed Mark Bostick Collection card and a Canagem specimen card.  Would make a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.

This is a great end cut of the Nuevo Mercurio meteorite. Nuevo Mercurio is classified as a Stone Olivine-bronzite H5 chondrite. It fell on 15 Dec 1978 in Zacatecas, Mexico.  At 1850 hrs on December 15, 1978, a bright fireball, traveling NE to SW and visible over a radius of at least 200 km, exploded over north-central Mexico and scattered meteorites over an elliptical area more than 10 km in length.

A total of around 300 individuals were found totaling 5+ kilograms. This specimen was picked up shortly after the fall and is very fresh. This is a great specimen that weighs 0.62 grams.

Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Will come with a Michael Cottingham Meteorite Collection and a Canagem® specimen card.

This is a great 10.8 gram Impact Melt Breccia from the Gardnos Crater in Norway.  It is amazingly light considering its mass of 39x30x5 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.

This impactite was formed between 385 and 900 million years ago in Precambrian time when a meteorite crashed into the earth making a ~5 kilometers wide crater locally known as the Hallingdal Impact Crater.

This is a beautiful green beryl emerald from Brazil. Naturally occurring beryl tends to form hexagonal crystals that can reach several meters in size if given the right conditions. Completely pure beryl will be transparent and colorless, while mineral impurities frequently tint the crystals color in most specimens.

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

Name: Beryl var. Emerald Crystal
Specimen Size:  Cabinet-Sized
Dimensions: 82x53x63 mm / 3.2x2.1x2.5 inches
Weight:  205 Grams / 7.2 ounces

This is a superb looking slice of the Shişr or Shi 010 meteorite, weighing 7.45 grams. Its dimensions are  34x26x3 mm. Originaly classified as an L4/6, this now L5 classified meteorite was part of the 16 stones found in the Shişr Desert of Oman by Russian meteorite hunters in 2001 with a total mass of 17.6 Kg. The shock stage of 3 and weathering grade of 3 is recorded for these pieces. 

This piece shows a nice polished face and is a desirable size perfect to show in class or at a science show.  This specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Will come with a BA-Meteorites.de.vu (Dr. Bernhard Brinker, Mineralogist and Martin Altmann-IMCA #3825) and a Canagem specimen card.

This is a superb looking Stony-iron or Mesosiderite classified Northwest Africa NWA 2945 classified meteorite; this amazing specimen is a part slice weighing 2 grams with dimensions of 16x12x4 mm.

The Metbul for NWA 2945 states that only one piece weighing 224 grams was recovered in 2005 from a small strewn field in Algeria. The classification of the NWA 2945 is a Mesosiderite with low shock rating of 2, and a degree of weathering also of 2 and most likely paired with the NWA 2924.

This slice displays extremely well and would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with both a Canagem Collection and a BA-Meteorites.de.vu specimen card.

This is a fantastic Impactite Fallback Breccia from Germany weighing 66 grams and measuring 74x53x9mm. 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.

This is a superb looking slice of the Shişr or Shi 010 meteorite, weighing 8.77 grams. Its dimensions are  61x20x3 mm. This L5 classified meteorite was part of the 16 stones found in the Shişr Desert of Oman by Russian meteorite hunters in 2001 with a total mass of 17.6 Kg. The shock stage of 3 and weathering grade of 3 is recorded for these pieces.  This meteorite is likely paired with Shişr 008, an L5 that weighed 244 grams.

This piece shows a nice polished face and is a desirable size perfect to show in class or at a science show.  This specimen would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection.  Will come with a Canagem specimen card.
