GIBEON IRON METEORITE (Namibia, 1836) Slice -Widmanstatten Pattern-. - 39.5 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 to make weapons and tools by the people of that era, though it was first discovered by Westerners in 1836.

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

The specimen in this lot is a rectangular slice with a good weight-to-surface-area ratio, in which we can see the Widmanstätten patterns as well as some dark-toned inclusions, 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 certificate (International Meteorite Collectors Association), which guarantees the authenticity of all our meteorites for life. Buy with confidence.

Best regards and our warmest wishes.
