description Overview
Indarch
Indarch is an EH4 enstatite chondrite that fell near Shusha in present-day Azerbaijan in 1891. Its highly reduced mineral assemblage includes abundant enstatite, iron-nickel metal, and sulfide minerals, with little iron bound into silicates. Researchers study Indarch to investigate the formation of enstatite chondrites and the oxygen-poor conditions that existed in parts of the early Solar System.

Hoba
Hoba is an iron meteorite found on a farm near Grootfontein, Namibia, in 1920. With an estimated mass of about 60 tonnes, it is the largest known intact meteorite and the largest naturally occurring mass of iron found near Earth's surface. Its great weight has prevented relocation, so it remains at the discovery site as a protected national monument accessible to visitors.
