Sikhote-Alin Meteorite Jewelry Pendant-08

Sikhote-Alin Shrapnel Meteorite Pendant

These pendants are from a tremendous meteorite impact located in Siberia which happened in February 1947. They are coarsest octahedrites. Many small Sikhote-Alin meteorites will show surfaces that have been ablated passing through the atmosphere. Others were blown apart on impact, similar to bomb-shrapnel.

This Sikhote-Alin meteorite pendant is a shrapnel fragment which weighs 6.9 grams, with jump ring at the top.
