Greetings

     Last night I listed a bunch of auctions one of which was a Sikhote-alin with a 2.5x2 cm circular feature in it. It is kind of like what you would expect of a large troilite except the surface (about 1-2mm lower than the surrounding surface) appears to be solid metal like the schrapnel.

    This morning I had an email from someone who said he had a piece with the same feature and was wondering what it was. Anyone want to take a stab at what it might be. I have no good explanations. Here is a link to the auction.
