This they call it a Pallasite meteorite
Just now read more about it -
It’s is a type of stony-iron meteorite that consists of a unique combination of metal and silicate minerals.
It is named after the Pallas asteroid, which was discovered in 1802 by German astronomer Heinrich Wilhelm Matthäus Olbers.
Pallasites are considered rare and are composed of approximately equal parts of meteoric iron and olivine, a silicate mineral.
The olivine crystals are often large and can be of gem quality, making Pallasites not only scientifically interesting but also aesthetically pleasing.
They are believed to originate from the core-mantle boundary of differentiated asteroids that were subsequently shattered through impacts.
