Hello Bill and List, > I am curious as to whether there is more information available about the > Shirokovsky Pallasite Meteorwrong? I have read the info available at the > Met Bulletin

Looking at a photo it sure looks to be a pallasite to my > armateur eye. > http://nuggetshooter.ipbhost.com/uploads/post-4-1121525585.jpg Esteemed list member Martin Horejsi wrote a short article on Shirokovsky in Joel Schiff's quarterly magazine. Maybe it is of interest to you. Here is the reference: HOREJSI MARTIN (2003) The Shirokovsky object: Meteorite, terrestrial, or none of the above? (Meteorite, Aug. 2003, Vol. 9, No. 3, pp. 5-6).
