Origin Story: About 5,000 years ago, a massive iron meteorite hurtled through Earth’s atmosphere, slamming into the remote desert sands of southern Egypt. The impact created the Gebel Kamil Crater—an extraordinary site surrounded by thousands of jagged iron fragments. Despite the dramatic event, the crater remained unknown to modern science until its rediscovery on February 19, 2009, via satellite imagery.
Rarity & Composition: What makes the Gebel Kamil meteorite truly special is its unique composition. It’s classified as an ungrouped Ni-rich ataxite, a rare type of iron meteorite with exceptionally high nickel content and no clear structural classification—setting it apart from more common iron meteorites. Only a limited number of these pieces exist, making this a genuinely rare cosmic relic.
Whether you’re a meteorite collector, geology lover, or just looking for a meaningful gift from the stars, this specimen is a powerful piece of space history you can wear close to your heart.
