A beautiful, small iron-nickel meteorite.The majority of meteorites originate from asteroid belts located between Mars and Jupiter.On average, the distance to these belts ranges around 190 million kilometers. Their weight is immense: a solid sphere of this material with a diameter of just under 3 meters would weigh around 100 tons!It is estimated that this largely unaltered material is approximately 4.5 billion years old. None of the rocks on Earth are of comparable age.Following tips from indigenous people, Spanish colonialists discovered scattered fragments of an iron meteorite on a vast plain in Argentina in 1576. The meteorite was named after its discovery site, which the Spanish conquerors called “Campo del Cielo”—“Field of Heaven.” However, since their campaigns were primarily focused on looting gold or silver, the site was initially forgotten.Much later, researchers discovered that this iron was of meteoritic origin, and we now know that a large iron meteorite struck this area approximately 5,000 years ago.Locality: ArgentinaSize: approx. 1 cmPlease note: Iron meteorites contain a certain amount of nickel. People with nickel allergies should avoid direct skin contact or wear rubber gloves when handling them.Colors in product photos may differ from those of the original specimen for technical reasons.Our pictures are for reference only, you will receive a specimen of equivalent quality with your purchase.
