Description
Hi everyone,Up for sale is my very rare (especially for this size) Kolang Meteorite which is a decent size chunk directly off of the hammerstone that smashed through a roof in Indonesia! It’s straight from my personal collection. This is one of my all-time favorites, and there isn’t much of it available (around 2,000 grams if I remember correctly).
Very little of this meteorite was recovered. This fragment weighs 8.1g and was recovered immediately before being exposed to terrestrial elements. This makes Kolang exceptionally fresh and is a perfect meteorite for display and/or study. Most importantly, it’s a meteorite that’s of extreme importance to science, being that is has been unaltered. That makes this a very in-demand meteorite.
***INSURANCE****
This meteorite is one that I would highly suggest opting in for additional insurance. It will be costly, but of utmost importance should any issues arrive during its travels. Please reach out to me before deciding to purchase so I can let you know the cost. This is optional, but once it’s in the hands of the postal service, it is no longer my responsibility should it become lost.
My name is Brett Joseph Cohen and I guarantee all of my meteorites. I am a member of the IMCA (#3950), The Global Meteorite Association (#042) as well a member of the Meteorite Club. Thanks for looking!

***Environmentally friendly alert***
As we’ve been expanding our reach in this crazy world of meteorites, we’ve seen how shipments large and small can affect our environment – from packaging and waste to the fuel it takes for an item to arrive safely.
We have always taken initiative to reduce our carbon footprint, and follow the rule of the three R’s whenever possible: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle.
Chances are, the box your new meteorite arrives in, as well as the bubble wrap and other packaging materials we use to safely secure your meteorite in, have been repurposed from a previous mailing. We only choose to reuse material that is in top-top shape. We hope this brings a smile to your face, since we owe Mother Nature this courtesy, among many others.
