DESCRIPTION

This 64.1g Aletai iron meteorite cube originates from the Aletai strewn field in Xinjiang, China, a historic iron meteorite locality first documented in 1898. The material is iron-nickel metal from the core of an ancient asteroid, shaped by processes that occurred over millions of years in space.

The etched cube displays the Widmanstätten pattern, a structure unique to slowly cooled iron meteorites. Its compact size, clear patterning, and established provenance make it a strong choice for collectors seeking a smaller premium specimen.
