Gibeon Iron Meteorite (Namibia, 1836) Slice -Widmanstätten Pattern- - Height: 7.1 cm - Width: 6 cm - 204 g

The Gibeon meteorite is among the most valued and sought after by collectors worldwide. It is a metallic meteorite, which fell in present-day Namibia in prehistoric times and was used for making weapons and tools by the inhabitants of that era, though it was first discovered by Westerners in 1836.

It is a fine octahedrite, of great exterior and interior beauty, and is commonly used for making high-end jewelry.

The specimen of this batch is a slice, rectangular, with a thickness that allows for more slices or other types of work, and in it we can see the Widmanstätten Lines as well as some very beautiful circular graphite inclusions and dark tones, in this classic meteorite that should not be missing from any collection.

A fantastic specimen to add to your collection. Do not miss this opportunity!

All of our meteorites come with an IMCA certificate (International Meteorite Collectors Association), so we guarantee the authenticity of all our meteorites for life. Buy with confidence.

Best regards and our best wishes.
