Allabogdanite is a very rare phosphide mineral with the chemical formula (Fe,Ni)
2P, found in 1994 in a meteorite.[1][5] It was described for an occurrence in the Onello meteorite in the Onello River basin, Sakha Republic; Yakutia, Russia ; associated with
taenite, schreibersite, kamacite, graphite and awaruite.[1] It was named for Russian geologist Alla Bogdanova.[2]
In a June 2021 study, scientists reported the discovery of terrestrial allabogdanite in a sedimentary formation. It is located in the Negev desert of Israel, just southwest of the Dead Sea.[3]
