Just wanted to show off my latest addition to my collection, a very nice 48.2g full slice of one of the most prized pallasite meteorites. Imilac.
I also had a nice surprise, a  gift of a Sikhote Alin shrapnel piece.

Nice specimens.  That first one is lovely!  The biggest hole in my collection is the lack of any pallasites.
