Santa Apolonia, Mexico
Truly a rare iron that was released from a long term collection. These
specimens were cut and polished by Marlin Cilz. This meteorite was
discovered in 1872. While the original name was Santa Apolonia meteorite,
decades later Nininger used the names Nativitas meteorite and Tlaxcala
meteorite. This meteorite is rarely represented in collections and it is
even more rare to see a specimen of pure iron for sale. If you have any
questions please ask.   Available specimens are 4.32 grams and 2.66 grams.
