The impact left a nearly 45-meter-wide and approximately 16-meter-deep Kamil crater, which remains relatively well preserved due to the dry climate and remote location. It is estimated that the crater formed less than 5000 years ago, making it one of the youngest impact craters on Earth.\nThe meteorite was discovered in 2009 during an expedition led by a team of Italian and Egittoian scientists. The Gebel Kamil site is located in southern Egitto, near the Sudanese border, in a remote and inaccessible region. Thousands of iron shrapnel fragments were found around the crater, with a total mass of approximately 1600 kg. During the expeditions, many fragments were recovered, with the largest pezzi weighing several kilograms.\nThe Gebel Kamil meteorite is composed mainly of iron and nickel. As an ataxite, it lacks the Widmanstätten structures typical of some Altro types of meteorite ferrosos.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"PeltramMinerals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58027646288197,"sku":"MEGE06","price":53.53,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0881\/1659\/2965\/files\/15964-2_meteorite-gebel-kamil-12-1g---egypt.jpg?v=1779377505","url":"https:\/\/moldavite.it\/products\/meteorite-gebel-kamil-121g-egypt-mege06","provider":"Moldavite.it","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
