This listing is for an authentic 20.33g Campo del Cielo Meteorite, a solid iron-nickel fragment from one of the most historically significant meteorite falls on record. This individual piece has been carefully selected for its mass, structure, and surface features—ideal for collectors, educators, and scientific enthusiasts.

The Campo del Cielo ("Field of the Sky") meteorites fell in the Gran Chaco region of Argentina over 4,000–5,000 years ago, resulting in a widely dispersed impact field. Officially recorded in 1576 by Spanish explorers—though known much earlier by indigenous peoples—these meteorites belong to the IAB-MG octahedrite group, composed primarily of iron (~92%) and nickel (~6.68%), with trace elements like gallium and iridium.

This 20.33g specimen is a natural, uncut piece displaying a metallic, sculptural texture shaped by atmospheric entry and millennia of preservation.
