This nickel–iron meteorite fell near Nantan in Guangxi, China, in an observed fall dating back to around 1516 and was rediscovered in 1958 during searches for iron ore. Classified as an IAB‑MG coarse octahedrite, the Nantan fall produced an estimated total known weight of about 9,500 kg. A striking fragment of 4.5‑billion‑year‑old metal from the asteroid belt, this Nantan meteorite is a tangible reminder of our solar system’s violent early history.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe Nantan meteorite fragmented during atmospheric entry, scattering debris over a strewn field approximately 28 km long and 8 km wide. There is no single, large impact crater, as the object broke apart before a single mass hit the ground.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIndividual Specimen:\u003c\/strong\u003e 19g, 3.1cm x 1.8cm x 1cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"my-2 [\u0026amp;+p]:mt-4 [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:inline-block [\u0026amp;_strong:has(+br)]:pb-2\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFloating Display Case:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7cm x 7cm x 2cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage includes:\u003c\/strong\u003e meteorite specimen, certificate of authenticity, collectors display case, In-depth information sheet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003ca style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\" href=\"https:\/\/littlestarshop.com.au\/blogs\/news\/all-about-meteorites\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eTo learn more about meteorites, read our in-depth blog here. \u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Crystal World","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50083941318902,"sku":"NAN004","price":100.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0759\/1352\/7542\/files\/20260320_131819.jpg?v=1773977361","url":"https:\/\/littlestarshop.com.au\/products\/nantan-meteorite-19g-china-1516","provider":"Little Star Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
