The Aletai meteorite, previously also known as the Armanty meteorite or Xinjiang meteorite, is one of the largest known iron meteorites, classified as a coarse octahedrite in chemical group IIIE-an.[b] In addition to many small fragments, at least five main fragments with a total mass over 74 tonnes have been recovered, the largest weighing about 28 tonnes.

Among the irons of the Aletai meteorite, three pieces can be distinguished, which at the moment apparently occupy the 5th, 6th and 9th places among the largest meteorites found on Earth.[3] The corresponding strewn field along its long axis is at least 430 km (and presumably even larger). It is by a margin the largest meteorite debris scattering field found on the planet, believed to be due to its unique stone skipping-like trajectory.
