They are very really exquisite, beautiful crystals. You can buy bismuth (lead-free) fishing weights in Walmart/Carrefour and melt them in aluminum cups on the kitchen stove. Like magic as soon as the heat is turned off these types of cool crystals start to form. Bismuth has a number of humorous uses, starting with its chemical symbol, and being the butt of bar-room jokes, and even then for the day after (Pepto-Bismol). Your crystals seem to have nice color though, which means someone did a real good job (it's hard to get a rainbow to reflect from them). They would make excellent pendants for jewelry, especially since they should be lead free and are safe, unlike nickel to which some people are allergic. But we've really deviated, that is one heck of a beautiful offering of meteorites! Deserves a second and third look.
