Item History & Price
Reference Number: Avaluer:44247548 |
So far approximately 23 tons of this material have been recovered. This piece displays extremely well and is a very desirable size. These specimens are known as shrapnel specimens, rippe...d and torn edges reminiscent of bomb shrapnel. They broke due to atmospheric pressure and/or mid-air collisions, and possibly explosive fragmentation upon impact. These pieces are a good example of the shrapnel type Sikhote-Alin.
Would be a beautiful addition to any new or existing collection. Comes with a Canagem Collection specimen card.
