Muonionalusta meteorite Superb IVA octahedrite with...

Very pretty slice of the Muonionalusta meteorite, finely etched. Historical iron meteorite from 1906, originating from Muonionalusta, Sweden, . Particularity : - this IVA octahedrite has here superb Windmanstatten patterns! - it mainly shows a portion of its crust, preserved on one side of the slice (with, of course, a very slight oxidation at this height, where the ferrous metal is more present!) - and adds to its substantial weight a nice thickness! Muonionalusta Fall coordinates: 67°48′N 23°6.8′E Iron, fine octahedrite, type IVA Geography: Sweden (Norrbotten) Fall observed: No Year of discovery: 1906
