This piece comes from the documented strewn field in Argentina's Gran Chaco region, where a meteorite fell between 4,000 and 5,000 years ago in an impact event that left behind one of the largest falls in recorded history. With a total known weight exceeding 100 tons, Campo del Cielo is not just famous — it is historically unmatched.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIndigenous peoples of the region were the first to recognise these metallic stones as extraordinary, naming the area \"Campo del Cielo\" — Field of the Sky. Spanish explorers confirmed the site in 1576, and it has been studied, collected, and celebrated ever since. This genuine specimen is classified as an IAB iron meteorite: composed primarily of iron and nickel, forged in the heart of a long-lost asteroid, and authenticated by its composition and provenance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eWhen you own a genuine Campo del Cielo meteorite, you are holding something that bridges indigenous heritage, colonial history, and modern planetary science — all in a single, extraordinary object.\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 ≈16mm x 22mm x 16mm\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 19 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 one of Earth’s most iconic meteorites to your collection and own a true cosmic treasure.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ForeverGems_Tuc26","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46206503551172,"sku":"S878","price":380.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0273\/1599\/4699\/files\/S878CampodelCielo_2.webp?v=1780573766","url":"https:\/\/www.forevergems.co.za\/products\/collector-campo-del-cielo-meteorite-copy","provider":"ForeverGems_SA","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
