Sericho

Sericho is a well-known meteorite that was discovered in the desert of northern Kenya in 2016, and to date more than 2,800 kg have been found. It was initially thought to be several separate pieces that were later identified as part of a single meteorite. Pieces ranging in mass from <1 to 500 kg have been found in an area over 45 km long, starting a few km west of Habaswein and south of Sericha. Most of the pieces weigh over 50 kg. Meteorites found at the surface show minimal weathering. This means that their surface structure and chemical composition remain relatively unaffected by the Earth's atmospheric and surface conditions.
