Hi Folks, The rock in the article is the Milton Pallasite that I wrote about in Meteorite Magazine in the May 2002 issue. Milton is a unique pallasite that appears to be somewhere between the main group pallasites and the Eagle Station pallasites but not directly on the line between them. There are also some interesting chemical similarities between Milton and carbonaceous chondrites. Milton is likely material from an asteroid as yet unrepresented in our collections. Given the price of Eagle Station, the $500/g figure is not quite so surprising.
