Gibeon Meteorite
This Gibeon Meteorite is an Iron Octahedrite (fine) fragment, originating from an ancient air burst event. The prehistoric meteorite fall occurred long before human habitation. Found in 1836 in the Great Nama Land region of Namibia, Africa, the Gibeon meteorite is one of the oldest known meteorites, providing valuable insights into the early solar system.
The Gibeon meteorite’s iron-nickel structure is typical of meteorites that have undergone slow cooling, allowing for the formation of unique crystalline patterns.
