Don't read too much into the simple "C" classification. This is very preliminary, and the classification will no doubt gain specificity as analyses at multiple labs are performed. (This is what Jeff meant in the "be patient" comment below.) For now, think of "C" as a placeholder: we know it's a carbonaceous chondrite. ;-) --Rob -----Original Message----- From: Jeff Grossman Sent: 22 May 2012 21:31:47 GMT To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] SUTTER'S MILL in MetBull For those of you who are disappointed in the classification, be patient. Science sometimes takes time. I'm sure various groups will be refining this in coming days and weeks.
