View translationGebel Kamil. Meteorite with crater. Lizzard skin texture - 24.1 g
No. 91065755
In 2008 a team of Egyptian and Italian scientists was studying the Egyptian desert aiming for archeological ruins with google Earth. Then they found a crater and in 2009 an expedition was organized to reach it, recovering some iron meteorites.
It is estimated that the impact occurred 5000 years ago. Apparently, the falling rock exploded at low altitude, forming a crater 45 meters in diameter and leaving many intricate meteorites scattered around it.
Gebel Kamil is classified as an iron ungrouped ataxite meteorite.
Coordinates: 22°01'06"N 26°05'16"E.
Certificate of authenticity included. IMCA 5591.
Packages are usually sent the morning after the auction. Shipping is combined in all my listings - if you win multiple items, only one shipping cost is paid.
