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.

.- Meteoritical Society
.- American Meteor Society
