I was doing a photographic survey of iron meteorite surface features when I 
found this big ball of troilite in a Sikhote-Alin.  It's got a slight bronze 
color. Looks like it almost ablated out.  I remember someone from Europe was 
selling these on eBay awhile back.  It measures a little over an inch 
across.
