New and unworn
Moldavite (Czech: Vltavín) is an olive green or matte green glassy substance formed by a meteorite impact in southern Germany (Nördlinger Ries), which would make it a type of tektite. It was first presented to the scientific public in 1786 as “Chrysolithe” from Týn nad Vltavou in a lecture by Professor Josef Mayer of Charles University in Prague, given at a meeting of the Bohemian Academy of Sciences (Mayer 1788). Zippe (1836) was the first to use the term “Moldavit,” derived from the town Moldauthein (Czech: Týn nad Vltavou) – today in Bohemia (Czech Republic), where the first described pieces came from.
Campo Del Cielo meteorites are classified as coarse iron octahedrites of Type IAB. This meteorite impact occurred 4,000 to 6,000 years ago. The first discovery was documented in 1576 by a Spanish captain named Miravel, though the actual impact was probably observed by indigenous Indians who originally called the region “Field of Heaven.”
Herkimer Diamonds are doubly terminated quartz crystals found in exposed dolomite outcrops in and around Herkimer County, New York, and the Mohawk River Valley in the USA.
They are not diamonds; the name “diamond” is due to their clarity and well-formed facets.
Since the first finds were in the village of Middleville or in the town of Little Falls, the crystal is also called Middleville Diamond or Little Falls Diamond.
