This piece was acquired from the Bethany Sciences collection and comes in a display box.
This unique earth specimen comes from the Cretacious-Tertiary (KT) boundary at Gubbio in Italy and contains iridium, a platinum element commonly found in meteorites. The iridium content at Gubbio led scientists to theorize that a large extraterrestrial mass impacted there at the time of the KT mass extinction.
Dimensions: 1-1/2"W x 3/8"D x 1-1/16"H, Weight: 7.91 g
