Kota-Kota, EH3

Kota-Kota is an unusual and rare meteorite; there are precious few EH3’s known, and only four are not from Antarctica or a hot desert.  This meteorite also has quite a history.  From Malawi Meteorites, 1899-1981, by M. J. Crow:

This specimen came from the mineral collection of Gilbert Gauthier, a well known mineral collector and dealer located in Africa — presumably because the mineral djfisherite [ K 6Na (Fe2+,Cu,Ni) 25S 26Cl ] was first discovered in Kota-Kota.
