Henbury METEORITE

A Nininger specimen acquired in a trade with the Arizona State University

Comes with ASU Specimen label.  See Original Numbers on Specimen.

Classified as an Iron, (IIIAB) Medium octahedrite.

The Henbury meteorite was found in Northern Territory, Australia in 1931. A large crater field was wound, with 13 distinct craters being recognized. All of them had meteorite strewn about, mostly on the surface of the desert. The total known weight of the Henbury meteorite is certainly over 1000 kilograms. The area is now an Australian park, preserved and protected, collecting is forbidden there and export of any Henbury meteorites must be approved. I visited Henbury Meteorites Park in August of 2008. It is thought that the Henbury meteorite fell around 4000 years ago, and was likely seen by the Aboriginal peoples of central Australia. Even today, they are superstitious of this place and do not go there.

 

This Hunbury meteorite weighs 1833 grams (4 lbs).

It measures 112mm by 91mm by 64mm
