ClassificationImilac is classified as a stony–iron pallasite. Imilac specimens are highly prized by meteorite collectors due to its high concentration of beautiful olivine grains. Strewn fieldNumerous masses were found in a valley to the SW of Imilac. The total weight of the Imilac fall is estimated to be around {{convert|1000|kg}}. The primary strewn field is long about {{convert|8|km}}.[2] SpecimensDue to weathering, intact olivine grains are present only on large specimens (over {{convert|1|kg}}). Smaller samples contain darker altered olivine crystals. On the market there are also a lot of very small (few grams) Imilac individuals called metal skeletons: they are severely weathered and lack olivine grains.
