Canyon Diablo, Arizona's famous Meteor Crater, is North America's most famous meteorite site. In Coconino County, Arizona, it was identified in 1897. 4-5 billion years old, it fell to earth 35-50,000 years ago and left a crater 3/4 of a mile across.
The original meteor actually vaporized from the impact, but 30 tons of meteors have been recovered in the large strewn field (now illegal, protected land).
Composed of coarse iron (IA) Octahedrite, it is 92% iron and 7% nickel.
What a piece of history!
