My wife and I purchased the Kimberly Meteorite Farm and Haviland Crater in 1994, opened a 2nd meteorite museum in 2007, closed the museum 2016 due to health issues, the rest is history.Just cleaning up some odds and ends topay for medical treatments not covered by medicare.
Approximate dimensions: 790gm x 9.5cm x 8.5cm x 1.8->0cm. Pretty sure I got this from R. Meyer around 1992. I refinished (polished and etched) about 10 years ago, pretty stable piec...e. The specimen was on display in our museum for many years, my homemade museum card included.
I know a lot of new collectors have not heard of us but we've been working with meteorites for over 25 years, check out our videos iffen you don't believe me:
Short youtube video on our Brenham, Kansas efforts!
How to metal detect a meteorite: How to metal detect a meteorite
and we have more videos on the youtube.
Sold only as an item for display (why? because over the years people have asked if meteorites could be used for some really weird stuff, you wouldn't believe it or ever think of some of these things, gotta love it).
Always practice good hygiene and wash hands after handling. Thank you, Donald I. Stimpson Ph.D.
