    Description

    This auction is for a set of six genuine meteorite pieces in plastic gem cases. Add six meteorites to your collection, or give them away as gifts - science geeks love them! This set includes the following pieces:
    Sikhote-Alin
    (IIAB) - Every meteorite collection should have some Sikhotes!  This classic iron meteorite is a witnessed fall from Russia in 1947.  Sikhote-Alins are available in all shapes and sizes, and they display very well.
    Sulagiri
    (LL6) - This meteorite was a witnessed fall in India on September 12, 2008.  I acquired this in a private trade in 2010, back when Sulagiri was easier to find.
    Canyon Diablo
    (IAB-MG) - Here's the classic iron meteorite from Meteor Crater, Arizona.  Every meteorite enthusiast should have at least one piece of this in their collection!
    Dhofar 911
    (Lunar) - This tiny sample of the Moon comes from a 194g lunar meteorite found in Oman in 2003.  Dhofar 911 is a feldspathic impact-melt breccia and is very rare - I don't see any other listings for it on eBay right now.
    Dalgety Downs
    (L4) - Here's a classic stone meteorite found in Australia in 1941.  I don't see much of it on eBay these days.  A good collection piece with nice metal flecks.
    Carancas
    (H4-5) - On September 15th, 2007, a large stone meteorite fell over Lake Titicaca and landed in Peru.  The impact resulted in a crater over 13 meters in diameter and sent debris great distances.  Considering the size of the fall, relatively little is available to collectors.
    About me:
    I had a meteorite business around 2008-2009, so some of you might remember me.  My career took me in a different direction, but I still love meteorites.  Now I'm selling some odds and ends that I've had stored in my closet for years, plus a few pieces from my personal collection.  I've been gone for a long time, but please see my 1300+ positive feedback on eBay!
    Combined shipping:
    I have other meteorites for sale, and I'm happy to combine shipping.  It's a total of shipping for your entire order.  Please don't pay for the items separately - it works best if you pay all at once.  Feel free to contact me if you need a combined total or if you have any questions.
    Note:
    You'll get exactly what you see in the photos.  However, a 1cm scale cube might be shown in some photos for size reference - that scale cube is not included.
