Gibeon
The Gibeon meteorite is an important iron meteorite that fell in prehistoric times and its fragments were scattered over a large area of approximately 275 x 100 kilometres in Namibia. This meteorite, named after the nearby town of Gibeon, belongs to chemical group IVA and is classified as a fine octahedrite due to its characteristic crystalline structure, known as Widmanstätten patterns, which are highly prized by collectors and jewellery designers.
