Metallic spheres are one of the easiest things to create naturally. We used the principle in shot towers throughout history to make bullets. I'm just an armchair expert, but it doesn't surprise me in the least we'd see near-perfect metallic spheres from a meteor burning up in the atmosphere.

Dippin' dots are still made that way.
