I'm looking for a best offer. I will wait 72 hours for best offer.
Please contact off list.
There is short info about this meteorite.
Two masses were found in 1967, total 323 kg. It was determined as coarse
octahedrite, bandwidth 2.0 mm(iron llE). There was new expedition on
Seymchan meteorite place in 2004. During the expedition there were several
find of different sizes meteorite individuals. Recent find shows that this
meteorite is close to Glorietta Mountain and contains NUMEROUS OLIVINE
GRAINS!!!! SEVERAL SMALL INDIVIDUALS FOUND ON SPRING TERRACE. It was a big
surprise after cutting the individuals that they contain few olivine grains
and shows a nice structure. Meteorite is absolutely stable, no any rust
going on it after cutting. The pictures shows metal structure, olivine
grains forms, It is interesting that some individuals contain olivine and
other not contain olivine. Some individuals has surface with fusion crust
like Sikhote-Alin, some looks like Chinge, and some looks like Sikhote
shrapnel. There was one small oriented individual. Right now Seymchan (or
maybe NEW) meteorite is under researching.


Recently many pieces were found.
It is very difficult to recognize which one piece contain some olivine
crystals and how much there are. Pieces with olivine are not usual.
Please if have some interest contact privately to sikhote_at_gmail.com

Sincerely,
Ivan K
