Full Metal Beauty of the Dronino Meteorite

Summary[edit]

Description
English: Full Metal Beauty of the Dronino Meteorite: The cut face, with interesting ring inclusions and shiny metal blobs within the metal matrix.

Bonhams summarizes: “Ataxites are a rare type of iron-nickel meteorite that do not exhibit a Widmanstatten pattern when they are etched due to their high nickel content. Ataxites are known as ungrouped irons as they do not match the chemistry of any of the other iron-nickel groups and most certainly come from a different planetary body than the other irons. Dronino was discovered by a Russian mushroom hunter in July of 2000.”
