Smith A. Mednikov was conducting a field geological survey of a tributary within the Jasachnaja River basin in the Magadan region of the former Soviet Union, and on the bank of a tributary called the Hekandue River, he discovered the main body of the Seymchan meteorite, weighing about 300 kilograms. Subsequently, another pair of meteorites weighing about 51 kilograms was replaced by geologist I.H. Mr. Markov found it 20 meters away. The two meteorites were collected and sent to the Academy of Sciences of the former Soviet Union. Immediately after, an interesting scene happened. At that time, the researchers of the USSR Academy of Sciences caused major errors in the classification of Seymchan meteorite due to the atypical sampling site of meteorite and the cutting and sampling part of pure metal texture, and Seymchan meteorite was classified as IIE type iron meteorite. With the collapse of the former Soviet Union, a German collector bought a 51-kilogram piece of it in the early 90s, and after decomposition and cutting, the German buyer was surprised to find that the original Seymchan iron meteorite contained olivine ---. Since then, the identity of Seymchan's peridot iron meteorite has been revealed to the world. In 2007 , the International Meteorite Society Nomenclature Committee revised the classification of Seymchan meteorites to olivine iron meteoritesReminder: Because the meteorite contains iron, it is easy to rust and corrode when exposed to the air, so we will wrap it with epoxy coating. This prevents the meteorite from rusting and keeps it longer. Please understand that!
