Iron, Fine OctahedriteNamibia, AfricaNo meteorite collection would be complete without at least one specimen from the famous Gibeon fall. Having fallen in prehistoric times and later discovered by the Nama people, Gibeon has been used by the indigenous Africans to make tools and weapons. The Gibeon strewnfield is composed of an elliptical area measuring 275 x 100 kilometers. Gibeon is known for its stability, aesthetic qualities and an outstanding Widmanstätten pattern when etched. Gibeon meteorites are becoming harder to come by and are highly sought after by collectors. The present sphere has been acid etched and polished to reveal Gibeon's crystalline pattern, formed by extremely slow cooling within its parent asteroid. Weighing approximately 223.3 grams. Diameter 1 1/2 in
