BRENHAM, KANSAS
Siderites from the famous pallasite strewnfield
Meteorites were first found in Brenham by frontier farmers in the 1880s. For the past several years I have been lucky enough to hunt Brenham with famed meteorite hunter Steve Arnold, and we filmed part of our new show Meteorite Men there. These beautiful slices are authentic Steve Arnold finds with a very special provenance, and were expertly prepared by Mike Miller.

CAMPO DEL CIELO – Campitos
Iron Meteorite (IAB)

"Field of Heaven" is the English translation for this historic, yet affordable meteorite. First discovered in 1576, it is one of the world's oldest documented meteorite finds. In recent years meteorite hunters expanded the strewnfield and located many new specimens. These "new" Campos were found at higher elevations and display much more character than those from the early finds.

I was the first dealer to view the shipping containers when these Campo del Cielos arrived in the United States. I examined hundreds of specimens and these are the very best of the finds from recent years. Although the original Campo del Cielo discovery was made in Chaco province, these campitos (small Campos) are from the more recently discovered area in Formosa province which yielded particularly fine sculpted specimens. These are among the best ever found by the hunting team, and we will not be able to acquire any more. Campo del Cielo is the most affordable iron meteorite available to collectors, and these lovely specimens make it possible for anyone to own a genuine piece of outer space.

AN IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING LEGALITY AND AVAILABILITY
On January 1, 2008 Argentina implemented a new law prohibiting the exportation of meteorites. All of our Campo del Cielo specimens were legally obtained prior to the enactment of that law. We will not trade in illegally exported meteorite specimens. I regret to say that the Campo del Cielo irons we currently have in stock are all we will ever have. I expect the prices on these excellent, affordable meteorites to rise dramatically in the very near future, so if you are thinking of acquiring one for your collection, now is the time.

CAMPO DEL CIELO – Very rare oriented specimens
Iron Meteorite (IAB)
When falling through our atmosphere on the way to an impact with the Earth, most meteorites spin and tumble, acquiring the interesting sculptural shapes that you see in photographs on this page. A very few maintain an even orientation towards the surface. Ablation cases those meteorites to acquire a conical, dome, or shield-shape, reminiscent of the nose cone of the Space Shuttle. They typically also display a flat or concave trailing edge, and sometimes a rollover lip, where molten metal has accumulated on the reverse side. The characteristics of oriented meteorites were studied by rocket ship designers. Oriented meteorites are very rare, and prized by collectors.

		CAMPO DEL CIELO oriented individual IAB First discovered 1576, Formosa, Argentina 225.7 gram oriented individual
		Beautiful highly oriented individual with a classic cone-shaped leading edge and a flat trailing edge. Extremely nice example of orientation. 53 mm x 52 mm x 38 mm RESERVED

CAMPO DEL CIELO – Extremely rare irons with natural holes
Iron Meteorite (IAB)
Iron meteorites with natural holes are among the rarest and most interesting of all meteorite specimens. Occasionally, during a meteorite's journey through the atmosphere, it will melt in such a way as to create a natural hole. Probably less than one in a thousand irons display this type of feature. They are extremely rare and highly sought after by collectors.

CAMPO DEL CIELO – Display specimens with custom armature stands
Iron Meteorite (IAB)
These excellent specimens came to us, some years ago, directly from the finders in South America.

CANYON DIABLO
Iron Meteorite (IAB)
America's most famous meteorite, Canyon Diablo, is found in the area surrounding Arizona's magnificent Meteor Crater — the best preserved meteorite crater on Earth. H.H. Nininger studied it for years and found specimens miles from the point of impact. Ancient Native Americans are also believed to have used and transported fragments of the meteorite. The crater is not a National Park, but a privately owned feature. A ban on meteorite hunting is strictly enforced by the owners and specimens of this historic and important meteorite are getting difficult to obtain.
