Description from the seller

Wonderful SIKHOTE ALIN. This meteorite fell to the east of Siberia in 1947 and was perhaps the first media meteorite, since it made a great worldwide impact. This specimen is free of impurities and oxide. It is very photogenic due to its flow lines that encircle the entire rear face, generated during the flight phase. It has rounded, smooth shapes. It presents an ideal size for making an exclusive piece of jewelry, wearing it as a discreet talisman, or as a high-level collectible. It is a specimen free of oxide. It ships in a jewelry box, with certificate of authenticity IMCA 5955.
