Someone is holding a pallasite - a “stony iron” meteorite consisting of iron metal and crystals of olivine, formed 4.5 billion years ago when the first asteroids in the solar system were melting, differentiating, and then colliding to rip each other apart. Anyone want to get me one of these for XMas? I will accept that as a donation. -- source link
