Intergrowth of kamacite (Ka), perryite (Per) and sulfide in EH3s. a A opaque nodule consisting mainly of the intergrown troilite (yellow brown) and perryite (light yellow) in Qingzhen under reflection light; b fine-grained troilite (Tr) intergrown with perryite (arrows) in the margin of a nodule from Sahara 97159; c the fine-grained troilite intergrown with perryite, note a coarse-grained troilite in the center of the nodule from Sahara 97159; d the absence of sulfide and perryite in a metal nodule from Almahata Sitta EL3. Euhedral grains of sinoite (Sin) are enclosed in metal, and enstatite (En) crystals intergrown with metal along the periphery
