17.2 grams. Iron, IIIAB
TKW 6.66 kg. Fall not observed. From the MetBul:
An iron meteorite fragment was purchased by Richard E. Dalsin of Minneapolis, Minnesota, from a Mexican in the city of Zacatecas in February, 1969. Mr. Dalsin reported that the Mexican "told us he had found it in the area."

Nice little Zacatecas bar! Obviously the meteorite was recrystallized due to artificial heating. On this slice there are remnants of the Widmannst*tten pattern still visible. Not to be seen on every collection piece. Thanks for posting it, Twink. |
