Hi, Elton, List, I see Jeff Grossman has already replied, but I looked because I'd like to download a PDF like that myself.
Here's the best of what I found: >From the Book "Meteorites and the Early Solar System" (2004), the chapter "Systematics and Evaluation of Meteorite Classification." Downloadable as a (34-page) PDF: http://www.lpi.usra.edu/books/MESSII/9014.pdf (I see that this is Reference #3 from the wikipedia article that Jeff Grossman referred to -- and recommended.) This is only readable online: "Meteorites, Comets and Planets, Vol.1" http://books.google.com/books?id=kYtksEUxw0oC&pg=PA84&lpg=PA84&dq=meteorite+classification+criteria+&source=web&ots=NEYI15fuq5&sig=eI2t355Y_wVkZ38He1xJhH5G7Us&hl=en&sa=X&oi=book_result&resnum=8&ct=result#PPA232,M1 Sterling K.

The geek in me has always been curious as to the actual classification criteria that a researcher uses to make classification. Does anyone have them by name or PDF or hard copy? Or volunteer to explain the general scheme for different classes? Sounds like fodder for a met-times expose?.
