The #Fukang meteorite, believed to be some 4.5 billion years old was unearthed near a town of the same name in China in 2000. It is a pallasite, a type of meteorite with translucent golden crystals of a mineral called olivine embedded in a silvery honeycomb of nickel-iron. It’s a gorgeous meteorite, and possibly the most stunning extraterrestrial piece of rock man has ever seen.

FYI…It can probably be classified as the most dangerous and most powerful meteor rock in existence because it can give Kryptonians permanent wounds, can strip them of their powers and abilities forever, and, in huge amounts, it can kill a Kryptonian.
It is speculated that gold kryptonite needs to have physical contact with a Kryptonian to permanently remove their powers.
