Hello Jeff and Lister I would have to agree with you more Jeff but I would take it further with the reign would say Semarkona is the only know 3.0 fall. No other 3.0 meteorite can beat that :) In addition to the fall it has under its belt, there are over 100 research papers done on the Semarkona meteorite.
Take a look at these two papers. First up... The Fine-Scale Cosmogenic History of the Semarkona Unequilibrated Ordinary Chondrite Craig, J.; Sears, D. W. G. http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/metsoc2010/pdf/5055.pdf On the Use of Phase and Bulk Compositions in Classifying Chondrules from Semarkona (LL3.0) and Other Ordinary Chondrites Beckett, J. R.; Connolly, H. C., Jr. http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/lpsc2002/pdf/1547.pdf Enjoy Shawn Alan IMCA 1633 ebay store http://www.ebay.com/sch/imca1633ny/m.html http://meteoritefalls.com/ ________________________________ From: Jeff Grossman <[email protected]> To: "<[email protected]>" <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, March 6, 2013 6:28 PM Subject: Re: [meteorite-list] finally: L3.00 There are actually many carbonaceous chondrites that have experienced, most likely, less heating than Semarkona. That includes nearly every CR and most CM chondrites. Semarkona's reign is over the OC kingdom.
