Description: Welcome to Pioneer Fossils! A Certificate of Authenticity, which has a color photo on it of the exact item you purchased, will accompany the specimen. Plus a free “floating” display stand. Here is a genuine slice of a piece of the famous Campo del Cielo meteorite, which roared towards Earth about 4200-4700 years ago, and hit at about 8,700 miles per hour in what is today Argentina. The first of many craters were first reported in 1576. The meteorite was made primarily of iron (92.6%) and nickel (6.67%), with 0.25% phosphorus, 0.43% cobalt, 3.6 ppm iridium, 87 ppm gallium, and 407 ppm germanium . This slice has been polished to reveal the wonderful Widmanstätten patterns across both cut faces. It is about .98” by .77” by .13” thick (varies), and it weighs 11.8 grams. The meteorite is estimated to have been about 4.5 billion years old, formed as part of the beginnings of our Solar System. The name Campo del Cielo means Field of Sky (or Heaven), where the meteorite fell from.A very impressive way to see this historic piece of history.We invite you to visit our store.

We have given hundreds of partial refunds for combined shipping savings. We will do our best to combine purchases to save shipping costs. In some cases, that is easy, in some cases, not as much. Our items are of vastly different sizes and weights, but we never use shipping as a profit center. We would rather refund the shipping overpayment back to you, and have a happy buyer.We are happy to enclose a COA (Certificate of Authenticity). Some words of caution about COA’s: Do not let them become a substitute for learning about the specimens. We have been working with fossils and minerals for many years, and we have seen hundreds of very nice-looking COA’s, some that are wrong, mis-describing a specimen. Have you ever received a Certificate of Authenticity (COA) that had no photo on it of the item you purchased? A COA should be specific to one particular specimen, with a photo of the item on it. At Pioneer Fossils, all of our fossils and minerals that come with a COA, have a photo of the exact item you just purchased. It can never be transferred to a different specimen.******************************************************************************************************************************************IMPORTANT: If you are not satisfied with your order, please contact us, and let us make it right, before giving any feedback.
