  (Larry's Almahatta Sitta example).  It's just my gut feeling but using  classifications to prove meteorites are unrelated has been relied upon far too much.  Using age dating is much more reassuring to me (i.e. the dates in the MAPS article).   Clear skies, Mark B

The 2010 stat is not cumulative.  It's the total platinum mine production just for 2010. Platinum is just the tip of the Iceber asteroid.  There are even greater amount of other metals contained in that 30m asteroid.  The question is if they can stay in business when prices are depressed.
