Welcome to Aesthetic Meteorites' Chinga Iron Meteorite page. The Chinga Meteorite was first discovered in the Chinga river bed in Tanna Tuva, Turvinskaya, Russia in 1911. Chingas are a beautiful and rare type of iron meteorite known as an ataxite. Ataxites have a very high nickel content (Chingas contain 16% nickel!). This high nickel content makes Chinga very stable. In addition Chingas lack any visible Widmanstatten pattern, and polish into a beautiful mirror like finish. Below you will find a variety of fine quality Chinga meteorites for sale. These full slices below are all polished to a mirror-like finish on one side allowing you to appreciate the beauty of this amazing meteorite.
