AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The Seymchan meteorite was discovered in 1967 in the Magadan region, in the bed of the Hekandue River, near the settlement of Seymchan.

Stony-iron originated from the core-mantle boundary of an asteroid, where molten metal mixed with olivine crystals.
Some sections are rich in olivine, others predominantly metallic, and some even devoid of olivine — this type of structure is called "transitional pallasite".

Weight: 116g
Dimensions: 11x7x0.03 cm
