This
is a 'fladle' or pancake stone from
the Ries Crater. It is a flattened chunk of impact melt glass, ejected during the meteoric impact. Available in several sizes up to around 15cm. Super items! |

These
50g shatter cones come from the
Ries Crater. They display quite beautifully the 'horsetail' patterns created by the enormous impact that formed the crater. Larger samples available |

An
intriguing gift for geologists, meteorite
collectors or palaeontologists! Our pieces of the K-T boundary layer were obtained for us from the Red Deer River, Alberta and are available in various sizes. A real talking point, and very hard to obtain! |

Suevite
fallback breccia from the Ries Crater.
The impact disrupted local Jurassic limestones, creatingshatter cones and breccias. Our samples have been polished on one surface to display the dark, glassy inclusions. |

Probably
unique to Spacerocks! We offer this set of nine different KT Boundary layer samples, each fully labelled in a padded acrylic case and presented in a hand-made glazed wooden box. The specimens have been collected for us on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. |
