Tom brought up something I have been trying to assemble or "Bum" off of
another researcher on the list. Does anyone have a chart of average
density/SG and ranges for the meteortite classes?
And Yes Tom this is largely the metal differences both free metal and
metalic compounds between the carbonaceous class and other chondrites.
