Pallasite, Found in Eastern Kenya, 2017
Few things create as much excitement in the meteorite world as the discovery of a new pallasite. The Sericho pallasite (sometimes called Habaswein), found in 2017 in Kenya is just such a discovery. Numerous masses of varying size and widely varying degrees of weathering were recovered. This example comes directly from Kenya and the masses from which Aerolite Meteorites specimens are taken show minimal weathering. In fact, the exterior of the best masses show virtually no weathering at all, as indicated by the green crystals present in those specimens. Slices have been beautifully prepared by an expert in pallasite cutting and polishing. Please note that they have not been coated with lacquer or other protective sprays! The faces show a natural high-gloss polish as a result of meticulous attention to detail in the lab.
Olivine crystals account for about 70% of the area of cut faces, and they show slight translucency with an attractive color palette ranging from light green to jade green, orange, and brown. A rare chance to acquire pallasite at an irresistible price.
