SIKHOTE-ALIN SUPER PREMIUM INDIVIDUALS
Iron Meteorite (IIAB)
These specimens have been hidden away in an old collection for many years and are easily among the very best we have seen in more than a decade of specializing in this fabulous Russian meteorite. These outstanding individuals have truly extraordinary shapes. We do not expect to ever again see specimens of a comparable quality on the market and they really are our best of the best. These are pristine examples, not the low quality, pitted and rust-damaged B and C-grade individuals being offered elsewhere.

NOTE TO COLLECTORS: Our close personal friends in Russia have advised us that no new material is being found at the Sikhote-Alin site. We have watched supplies of this magnificent meteorite dry up completely during the last few years. Our remaining stock of A-grade specimens is all we will ever have. If you want to acquire an example of this iconic witnessed fall iron, the time to do so is now.

As collectors and enthusiasts, Sikhote-Alin is easily our favorite meteorite. The Sikhote-Alin shower of 1947 took place in a remote area of eastern Russia and was the largest single meteoritic event documented in modern times. It is an extremely rare witnessed fall iron, and many individuals display the classic characteristics of meteorites: regmaglypts, orientation, rollover lips, and even impact pits from in-flight collisions with other meteorites! Sikhote-Alin is an extremely stable and affordable meteorite.
