"Pallasites" are meteorites that are very rare and in which olivines are mixed in a metallic matrix. They originate from the mantle of large asteroids and constitute only 1.7% of known meteorites.

This pallasite was initially named Habaswein, a town near the first discovered fragments, but eventually the meteorite was officially named Sericho, the area in Kenya where the impact occurred.

A fantastic double specimen to add to your collection.
