673 grams. Iron, IIAB
TKW 23 MT. Observed fall February 12, 1947.
Anne writes:
On February 12, 1947, this huge iron meteorite exploded just north of Vladivostok, Siberia, resulting into a shower of thousands of fragments large and small, individuals and shrapnel, and hundreds of impact holes, all over the Sikhote-Alin Mountains. Many have been found since then, but part of that area has now been turned into a Wildlife Refuge for Siberian tigers.
Classified as a Coarsest Octahedrite.

Thank you Twink. I like the shape, with that odd finger sticking out. |
