Nantan Iron Meteorite, 7.08 pounds

This unique item is sold.

Code: metm216_nantan-meteorite
This is a natural Nantan Iron Meteorite weighing 3.22 kilograms (7.08 pounds)
Genuine Nantan Iron Meteorite Dimensions: 6.3" long x 3.5" wide x 3" thick
Discovered at Yaozhai, Nantan, Guangxi Province, China
Price: $515.20
This genuine Nantan meteorite has a relatively flat shape. It is in natural condition and makes a great collector specimen just as it is, although it also could be sawn and then etched to show its amazing Widmanstatten octahedral pattern of intergrown crystallized iron and nickel. See also an opposite side view of this natural Nantan meteorite. The Nantan meteorite fall is one of the very rare witnessed iron meteorite falls on Earth. It fell from the northwest in May of 1516 during the reign of Chinese emperor Zhendge, with falling stars as bright as lightning that "waved like snakes & dragons" and then disapeared in a few seconds. Centuries passed with no further record until 1958 during the severe steel shortage of chairman Mao Tsetung's "Great Leap Forward" program when even the local farmer's cooking pots were melted down to produce steel. Some farmers at Nantan then discovered heavy iron rich rocks that they were unable to melt. Government investigators arrived and determined the "iron ore" to be meteorites!

Scientists believe that iron-nickel meteorites formed from molten planetary core material that cooled very slowly out in the void of space.

The transparent green natural color Moldavite is a natural silicate glass tektite. Moldavite and other tektites are thought to have formed from the extreme heat & pressure produced during a meteorite impact on the surface of the earth.

During some meteorite impacts, it is believed that both the surface of the earth and the meteorite itself melt together and are thrown or splashed into the air by the force of the meteorite impact's explosion, fusing into natural glass tektites which cooled quickly while flying up into the air and then falling back down to the earth.

See our page displaying genuine moldavite jewelry, with all natural moldavite jewelry designs including beautiful moldavite necklaces and a selection of genuine moldavite rings and amazing moldavite bracelets!
