Hi All! After I had written that carbonaceous chondrites were relatively rare in our collections when compared to ordinary chondrites, someone asked for numbers off-list. So I'd like to share the result with all of us:
Carbonaceous chondrites presently in my databases: (Tentative) pairing not considered! 190 worldwide without Antarctica (45 falls/144 finds + 1 Bench Crater) 329 US Antarctica 123 Japanese Antarctica (there are probably several more meanwhile!) => 642 Carbonaceous chondrites All meteorites: 05938 Meteorites worldwide without Antarctica 08514 Japanese Antarctica 10532 US Antarctica => 24984 meteorites = 100 % => 642 Carbonaceous = 2.5 % Best regards, Bernd ______________________________________________ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
