This IAB iron meteorite from Argentina's Gran Chaco region is part of a fall that struck Earth between 4,000 and 5,000 years ago and produced one of the largest accumulations of meteoritic material ever recorded — total known weight exceeding 100 tons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe story behind a true collector meteorite like this one begins before the science. Indigenous peoples of the Gran Chaco knew these metallic stones for millennia, naming the region \"Campo del Cielo\" — Field of the Sky. When Spanish explorers documented the site in 1576, it became one of the earliest meteorite falls recorded in the Western world, cementing a dual legacy of indigenous knowledge and Western scientific history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eComposed primarily of iron and nickel and forged in the core of a long-lost asteroid, this Campo del Cielo collector piece offers everything the serious collector seeks: authenticity, provenance, and a story that ranges from deep space to human discovery — all in one specimen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb style=\"mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eThe Details You Need\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e✓ Meteorite Type:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e Iron Meteorite (Coarse Octahedrite)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e✓ Composition:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e Primarily Iron and Nickel\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ Fall Age:\u003c\/b\u003e Approximately 4,000–5,000 years ago\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ Total Known Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e Exceeds 100 tons (all recovered specimens)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ First Documented:\u003c\/b\u003e 1576 by Spanish explorers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e✓ Age:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e Approximately 4.5 billion years old\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ Fall Location:\u003c\/b\u003e Chaco Province, Argentina\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ Specimen Size:\u003c\/b\u003e ≈28mm x 23mm x 19mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 31 gram\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\" style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"mso-ansi-language: EN-US;\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e✓ Want to know more about Campo del Cielo:  \u003c\/b\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.forevergems.co.za\/blogs\/news\/campo-del-cielo-meteorite-the-iron-giants-that-fell-from-the-sky\" title=\"Read here\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eRead here\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eAdd a museum-worthy meteorite to your collection and own a true natural wonder.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ForeverGems_Tuc26","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46206369038532,"sku":"S884","price":590.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/1599\/4699\/files\/S884CampodelCieloMeteorite_2.webp?v=1780574698","url":"https:\/\/www.forevergems.co.za\/products\/campo-del-cielo-meteorite-space-rock","provider":"ForeverGems_SA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
