There are only 5 recognized H metal meteorites, four of which were found in Antartica. The Franconia Meteorite is the only known stony chondrite strewnfield which has small iron nickel meteorites scattered throughout it. These small iron meteorites derived from the metal rich portions of the Franconia H Chondrite. Many of these small irons show gun metal blue fusion crust and small crater like indentions where chondrils popped out.
