Stony-Iron Meteorites/Pallasites

Stony-iron meteorites are rare. Most are recovered as larger individual specimens, which we carefully slice to enhance the beauty and aid in scientific examination. In pallasites, the thinner the slice, the more trans- parent the olivine crystals. Very thin slices are more expensive per gram, reflecting the higher cutting losses and painstaking preparation.
