Hi Richard, "Chladnite" is a synonym for enstatite and was a synonym for the aubrites among the meteorites.
That mineral name was introduced by Charles U. Shepard (1804-1886) in 1846 when he firstly observed enstatite in the 1843 fallen Bishopville aubrite, to honor Ernst Florens Friedrich Chladni as the founder of modern meteoritics. Best!

I see this fall is now classified as a Diogenite but could anyone discuss the term Chladnite a bit more?
