IMPACTITES FOR SALE
Impactites include impact glasses, tektites, impact breccias, and shatter cones, and are terrestrial rocks that have been altered or created by the heat and pressure of a meteorite impact. Impactites are sometimes all that remains of ancient meteoritic events from which the meteorites themselves — and sometimes even the crater — have disappeared.

MOLDAVITES
Moldavite mine in Czech Republic

Moldavites are stunning rich green impact glasses created by the heat and pressure of an ancient meteorite impact. They are found in a very few areas within Bohemia and Moravia in the Czech Republic, and the Republic of Moldova, which gives these captivating impactites their name. Some experts believe that moldavites are associated with the Nordlinger Ries impact crater event. If that is correct it would make them approximately 15 million years old. While most impact specialists believe moldavites were created from melted terrestrial matter, they do display some characteristics associated with meteorites.

Mining in the Czech Republic (see photo at left) has depleted the supply of quality specimens and a limited amount of material is available on the consumer market. Moldavites have a hardness rating of 5.5 and are often faceted for use in jewelry. When cut and polished, their deep green color is reminiscent of emeralds and peridot.

EXTREMELY RARE LARGE SPECIMENS
As the stock of moldavites becomes more and more depleted, and new specimens more and more difficult to excavate, moldavite miners have been turning to their private collections and selling quality pieces that have been hidden away for many years. Because of our long association with some of the miners, this "last gasp" has brought us some amazing specimens. If you want to add a large moldavite to your collection, do it now. These may be the last large, top quality pieces we are able to offer.

DARWIN GLASS
A very difficult-to-obtain impact glass
Darwin Glass is among the rarest of impact glasses and is found in a small area on the island nation of Tasmania. We are very lucky to have obtained a few excellent examples from colleagues in Australia. The impact is believed to have taken place about 800,000 years ago and fragments are rich in chromium, nickel, and cobalt, indicating that they contain actual pieces of the original meteorite, frozen forever within the glass! A remarkable and fascinating meteorite collectible.
