areas where the meteorites were collected

22 pages of figures showing meteorite compositions in terms of pyroxene
quadrilaterals, anorthite content of feldspar, and fayalite content of

like this more and more difficult to obtain,
It took me 4 years to get this book and I consider myself lucky to get one.
