Paul, look at meteorite density by classification. Jeff Kuyken has a
great webpage with the data here: http://www.meteorites.com.au/odds&ends/density.html

Hi, Listees:
Puzzle me this, please. L4 chondrites have little iron and little
magnetic
attraction as compared to an H5, so how does their weight to size
compare?
That is, is a 100 gram of H5 half the size of a 100 gram of L4 (or
some
other relationship)? As there is little iron in a L4, what is the
primary
material that gives it weight?
Specifically, in comparing a Franconia to a Gold Basin, would one see
similar size specimens of each weighing nearly the same weight?
Are there comparative tables that are useful in this question?
Best regards,
Paul
