This is a genuine Iron Nickel Nantan meteorite lot of 3. The total weight of these meteorites is 45.8 grams. Meteorites weigh 11.5grams, 18.8 grams, and 15.7 grams. Included with the meteorite is a nice color information card and a certificate of authenticity.
Nantans contain a trace amount of chlorine which causes them to oxidize more quickly than other meteorites. That's what gives them their unique and beautiful brownish-red color. Due to this fact, we do not recommend cutting and polishing these pieces. They need to be protected at least once a year by soaking them in mineral oil. This is a great gift for meteorite collectors!
We have a variety of meteorites available so be sure to check out our other items!
