Hi Michael,
Awesome image of the large, recent Kainsaz find! When I saw that
shape, I was sure I'd seen it before...

Dear Martin and list,
I can't comment on the CO3 oxymoron, but I am the inventor of the
type 3.05 classification, so I can comment on that.
As we have studied type 3 chondrites over the last 30 years,
especially ordinary and CO chondrites, we have been gradually
refining the 1967 Van Schmus
Hi Jeff,
if this is state of the art of the classification scheme, and has been accepted
by a majority of the meteoriticists, does this mean some important primitive
meteorites finally need a refinement of their established classifications?
I am thinking of (e. g.) the Krymka meteorite, which
Martin, others,
as for the unclassified CO3 that was indeed the wrong term. I was referring
to a CO3 type chondrite whose classification has not yet reached official
status. I sincerely apologize for causing confused disbelief.

Hello Jeff and All,
Thank you very much for the thorough and thoughtful reply. I certainly
would not disagree with you on such matters.
Now I'm curious if refinement in classification will be made for
Krymka (like Alex):

Bishunpur:
Yes. All of the low-petrologic-type chondrites can be refined. In
Grossman and Brearley (2005) we reclassified Krymka as type 3.2 and
Bishunpur as type 3.15. Here is the entire set of ordinary
chondrite petrologic types from that paper:
Semarkona -- 3.00
QUE 97008 -- 3.05
MET 00526 --
Thank you, Jeff, for your quick reply. Seems that some type collectors will now
feel a need to expand their meteorite inventories with the new subclasses,
which is not an easy, or even impossible, task with almost all of those
mentioned meteorites out of reach for a private person. So let´s
Yes, thanks to Jeff for these clearings and examples for LL's.
Note that, in contrast to the Met Bull on line, in the new edition of
Meteorites from A to Z, the LL petrological types as given by Jeff are
correctly mantioned, except for Bishunpur, which remained LL3.1 (but
LL1.15 in Met.
Hello,
I just learned that the british newspaper Times had
put all of its archives online, for free.
You can browse and consult any single issue of this
newspaper from 1785 to 1985.
I typed meteorite in the search engine and found 551
results.
Maybe a good way to get information about well

This is a terrific development.
The Times normally sells its database to libraries, and it is certainly not
for free! Many libraries in the NYC area even have a restriction that the
Times database must be used on site at the library to keep the cost down,
unlike other library databases
