Course edit

The Iomrautvaam has its source in the Komeutyuyam Range of the Koryak Highlands. It flows in a roughly northeastern direction in the northern section of the range. Finally it meets the right bank of the Khatyrka 100 kilometres (62 mi) from its mouth, close to the northeastern end of the ridge.[2][3][4][5]

Khatyrka meteorite edit

The Khatyrka meteorite, a unique-type of meteorite[6] fell in the area of the Iomrautvaam river basin at 62°39′11″N 174°30′02″E / 62.65306°N 174.50056°E / 62.65306; 174.50056. It was found during an expedition to Chukotka in the summer of 2011 buried in a 7,000-year-old layer of dirt and was named Khatyrka meteorite.[7][8]
