Hello List,

In addition to what Jeff Grossman wrote and with regard
to Matteo's statements about Bensour and Park Forest,
I'd also like to draw your attention to the Fa and Fs values:

Bensour: Olivine Fa31 =B1 1; pyroxene Fs25.4

Park Forest: Olivine Fa24.7; pyroxene Fs20.7

Thus Bensour clearly qualifies as an LL6, whereas Park
Forest falls into the range of the L 5 and L6 chondrites.
