In 1924 a meteorite of 1084 grams was found. 13 years later the main mass of 1411 kg was recovered at Huckitta (22°22’S, 135°46’E). Over 900 kilograms (2,000 lb) of iron shale were also found. This is a full slice of the Huckitta meteorite.

This pallasite was found in 1997 in Morocco. Only 1 mass was recovered. It has big and colorful olivines and is one of the best pallasites I have ever seen. This slice has a chatoyant olivine that captivated me.
