IIAB meteorites are a group of iron meteorites. Their structural classification ranges from hexahedrites to octahedrites.[2] IIABs have the lowest concentration of nickel of all iron meteorite groups.[3] Most iron meteorites are derived from the metallic planetary cores of their respective parent bodies, but in the case of the IIABs the metallic magma separated to form not only this meteorite group but also the IIG group.[1]
