If I correctly remember, when this meteorite came up, it was first thought to be a brachinite. Classification later on showed it to be a poymict ureilite.

a piece of Reid 016 which is listed in METEORITES A-Z as a
Urilite and came in a Michael Casper reiker box with label listing it
as a Brachinite.
    Anyone know why the discrepancy?




I have a small piece of Reid 013, which I understand to be a Brachinite. Maybe Casper figured if it was within 3 numbers.....;-)
