Meteorites

Janet, Very interesting idea! But where does one get pieces of
meteorites? Do you treat them like stones and set them or can you
solder them on to pieces. I’ve got a couple of ‘spacey’ but lovable
friends that would really appreciate such a gift. I’d like to hear
more. Dess

larger pieces that you can cut. About a $1.00 per gram for nice
material. Michael Santos nad Peggy Quinn Box 97, Douglas Flat CA

Dear Dess,

I bought a small piece of meteorite from Bill Gangi, about 2 years
ago at the Tucson Gem Show. He had flat pieces, about 1" long by
1/2" wide and about 11 gage thick. I don’t know if he has any
currently available, but it is worth checking out. You can reach him
by email at gangi@flash.net or by phone 520 577 7574. I hope this
will help you.

Sincerely,
Jodi

This is an old thread, but I’m wondering if anyone knows where I can get a band of meteorite these days. I’d like to make my own ring, but start with a pure band of quality meteorite.
Thank you,
Nancy

I’ve seen meteorite slabs and specimens at the Tucson shows. Browse through the old brochures to find the dealers, /the ones that come to mind are on the hotel row shows. I think the old show catalogs can be found online. I would look for you but am in Idaho and last years catalogs are in AZ.
