Irving,UWSand P. Carpenter,WUSL) Well-formed, closely-packed glass-bearing chondrules (apparent diameter 950 ± 380 µm, N = 25) are set in a fine grained matrix containing stained kamacite, taenite, troilite, chlorapatite and low-Ti chromite. Calcic plagioclase is present in some chondrules and albitic plagioclase occurs in the matrix. Geochemistry: Olivine (Fa22.0±9.4, range Fa0.6-28.3, N = 8), low-Ca pyroxene (Fs17.3±4.7Wo1.9±1.3, range Fs10.7-21.4Wo0.5-3.7, N = 4), pigeonite (Fs13.5Wo10.4), subcalcic augite (Fs19.8Wo32.1), Al-Ti-diopside (Fs0.8Wo53.8, Al2O3= 11.0 wt.%, TiO2= 2.6 wt.%). Magnetic susceptibility log χ (× 10-9m3/kg) = 4.45. Classification: Ordinary chondrite (LL3). Specimens: 33.7 g including one polished thin section atUWB; remainder with Mr. M. Arjdal. Data from:
