The Aletai meteorite was discovered in 1898. It was discovered by a local farmer in a valley in a mountainous area of Aletai County in northern Xinjiang, China.
The main composition of the meteorite is kamasite, tenite and plesite. Minor ones include schreibersite, daubreelite, troilite and haxonite.
You can enjoy much of its outer shell and crystalline iron core. This cut is pre-stabilized by electrolysis, then etched and polished to enjoy the best and most amazing lines of Widmannstatten! The meteorite comes with a certificate of authenticity and without a stand.
