This slice is largely skeletal in that it contains very little olivine. There are traces on the front and back but it is the unique skeletal shape that makes this piece special.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Brenham is a pallasite meteorite found near Haviland, a small town in Kiowa County, Kansas, United States.
The Brenham meteorite is associated with the Haviland Crater.
In 1949, a collector named H.O. Stockwell discovered a mass of 453.6 kilograms (1,000 lb), known at the time as "The World's Largest Pallasite Meteorite."
In October 2005, geologist Philip Mani and meteorite hunter Steve Arnold located and recovered the largest fragment ever found of Brenham: a single pallasite mass of 650 kilograms (1,430 lb).
Brenham is an anomalous pallasite (Pallasite-an).
