*Muonionalusta is a meteorite classified as a fine octahedrite, type IVA (De) that impacted in 1906 in northern Scandinavia, west of the border between Sweden and Finland. The original meteorite was a fine octahedrite that fragmented before reaching the Earth's surface and has since been affected by the reworking of glacial ice from the last ice age.
The major components (kamacite, taenite, troilite, schreibersite and minor sulfides) are of course not unexpected in an IVA iron.
