We are very pleased to present a beautiful and intriguing new find, with marvellous brecciation. El Tiro (meaning “the shot”) was discovered in January of 2013 by a gold prospector colleague of Geoff Notkin’s, close to the small settlement of El Tiro in Sonora, Mexico. Only a single stone was recovered with a total known weight of just 2.4 kilograms. The stone displayed gentle regmaglypts, weathering cracks, and a fair amount of fusion crust. El Tiro’s grey, blue and
brown matrix exhibits abundant, multi-coloured breccia clasts, metallic flakes, and dark chondrules. We acquired the entire mass from the finder and proceeded with classification. El Tiro is an Aerolite exclusive and only available from us
