Classified as \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eIAB iron meteorites\u003c\/span\u003e, they are composed primarily of iron and nickel and often contain inclusions of silicate minerals and other materials that provide clues about processes occurring within the early solar system. The impact produced a large strewn field containing numerous craters and thousands of recovered fragments, including some of the largest meteorites ever discovered. Campo del Cielo specimens are especially popular with collectors because their dense metallic composition, sculpted surfaces, and remarkable history make them immediately recognizable examples of material from space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI will personally select your meteorite from my collection of individually curated specimens.
