Skeleton Sericho Meteorite Pallasite, a complete specimen from Sericho, Kenya, weighing 29.5 g.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful complete Sericho, of large size.
On the surface, olivine crystallizations can be observed.
The pallasites contain approximately 50% metal (iron and nickel) and 50% silicates (in the form of olivine). They originate from the interior of large asteroids. Pallasites are one of the most beautiful types of meteorites that exist. Their name comes from the German zoologist and botanist Peter Simon Pallas, who discovered, in 1772, the first specimen of this type of meteorite in Siberia, Russia.
At Expometeoritos, we handle outreach, talks, workshops, analyses, classification, and exhibitions of meteorites.
