Gibeon Iron Meteorite (Namibia, 1836) Slice -Widmanstätten Pattern- - 33.4 g

The Gibeon meteorite is among the most valued and sought-after by collectors worldwide. It is a metallic meteorite that fell in present-day Namibia in prehistoric times, and was used for crafting weapons and utensils by the inhabitants of that era, although it was first found by Western humans in 1836.

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

The specimen in this lot is a sliced, rectangular piece, with a good weight-to-surface area ratio, in which we can see the Widmanstätten lines as well as some inclusions of 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 our meteorites come with an IMCA (International Meteorite Collectors Association) certificate, so we guarantee the authenticity of all our meteorites for life. Buy with guarantees.

Regards and our very best wishes.
