Perryite is a nickel silicide mineral. It is found in extremely silicon-rich meteorites. The type material is housed at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington. [1] It was first found in Horse Creek and described in 1963 by Fredriksson and Wickman. [2] It was named after Stuart Hoffman Perry, and American meteorite collector. The mineral is typically found intermixed with troilite, an iron sulfide. [2] It is a minor constituent of metal enstatite chondrite meteorites. [3]
