Description Sikhote-Alin Meteorites (6.5 cm across) - the octahedrite shown here is a nice piece of shrapnel from the Sikhote-Alin Meteorite. Sikhote-Alin is a group IIB iron that impacted at 10:38 AM on 12 February 1947 near Novopokrovka, in the Sikhote-Alin Mountains of Maritime Province, far-eastern Russia. No photographs were taken, but an eyewitness to the Sikhote-Aline fireball made a painting of what he'd seen.
