Scott writes:
I’ve always been fascinated by cubes and spheres of interesting materials, so most of my meteorites are in this form, unless they are special as individuals. I’m fond of pallasites (nicely silicated also counts) and that lead to this set of three. Note the contrast between the gray silicate in the Campo, the yellow/orange olivine in the Brahin and the green olivine in the Fukang.

From left to right:
Campo del Cielo (silicated), 223 grams, 36x36x36mm

Brahin, 236 grams, 37x37x39mm

Fukang, 211 grams, 36x35x35mm

cube cuts of stony irons are certainly a good way to see a larger 3D image/version of a given meteorite. thanks for sharing these Scott.
