Description from the seller
Beautiful complete Sericho, large in size
You can see olivine crystallizations on the exterior.
Pallasites contain approximately 50% metal (Iron and Nickel) and 50% silicates (in the form of Olivine). They originate from the interiors 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 are responsible for outreach, talks, workshops, analyses, classification, and exhibitions of Meteorites.
We are members of:
.- IMCA (International Meteorite Collectors Association) #8187
.- Meteoritical Society
.- American Meteor Society
All of our pieces are certified and, moreover, we provide the analysis of the chemical composition if the piece’s value exceeds €300, performed at our facilities by X-ray Spectroscopy.
