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.

A stony-iron originating 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: 60 g
Measurements: 11 x 7 x 0.03 cm
