Nantan Iron Meteorite, 8.14 pounds
	This unique item is sold. Item: metm149_nantan-meteorite This natural Nantan Iron Meteorite weighs 3.70 kilograms ( 8.14 pounds ) Genuine Nantan Iron Meteorite Dimensions: 7.25" x 6" x 3.25" Found at Yaozhai, Nantan, Guangxi Province, China Price: $536.50 This genuine Nantan meteorite is in natural condition - it has not yet been ground, sawn, or buffed with a steel brush to expose the beautiful coarse crystalline octahedral structure hidden within it. This Nantan meteorite is a very nice collector specimen just as it is, although it also could be polished or sawn and then etched to show its amazing Widmanstatten octahedral pattern of intergrown crystallized iron and nickel. 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!

The Sikhote-Alin meteorite fall occured on February 12, 1947. It is the largest observed meteorite fall in recent history, with an estimated mass of more than 60 tons that broke up about 3.5 miles above the earth's surface shortly before impact. This iron meteorite fell to earth through the bright sunlight of late morning, and it was described by observers as being as bright and large as the sun, casting shadows as it passed by and leaving a large plume of smoke in the sky that lasted for hours.

Iron-nickel meteorites are thought to have formed from molten planetary core material which cooled very slowly out in space.

The transparent green natural Moldavite is a natural silicate glass tektite. Moldavite and other tektites are thought to have formed from the extreme heat and 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 genuine moldavite rings.

See also our genuine Tektites including the natural Libyan Desert Glass Tektites, and our page displaying Genuine Moldavite.

We also have genuine Tektite Jewelry available in rings, pendants and necklaces. Wind blown desert sands sculpt the Libyan desert glass tektites into interesting shapes with a semi-polished natural surface finish. Those who trek to Eastern Egypt's uninhabited regions in search of these Lybian desert glass tektites risk much as the region is one of Earth's most inhospitable places, and finding a medjool date palm oasis is very unlikely!
