METEORITE. IRON. OCTAHEDRITE, MEDIUM (IIIA).
Henbury Craters, Northern Territory, Australia
Each of the examples illustrated is a very attractive, complete individual iron meteorite with natural, reddish-brown, lightly oxidized surface, as field collected (specimens have not been cleaned). All have interesting, natural irregular surface features. Most of these specimens are from a collection, field collected in Australia circa 1970. The tiny white numbers visible in some of the photographs are the collection numbers applied to the specimens when they were originally brought to the USA from Australia. The specimens illustrated at the left are typical of Henbury iron meteorites. The list price is +/- $1.25 / gram, and the discount price is +/- $1.00 per gram.
