CHAPMAN C.R. et al. (1979) Discussion of the new
spectra (in Asteroids I, ed. T. Gehrels, p. 660):

349 Dembowska has a visible spectrum similar to that of LL6 chondrites,
but its 2 µm infrared spectrum has been interpreted as indicating either
a high metal content [Veeder et al. 1978] or high olivine content ...
That may place it outside permissible ranges for ordinary chondrites.
