Ed, I should have added CO ("Ornans type") Carbonaceous chondrites to
the spotlight with CV and CM. I always mix up my V's and O's, V's
being the real McCoy and O's bing cheap imitations for those of us who
gre up eating Allende instead of Wheaties ;-) All the former can have
in the neighborhood of 10% by weight CAIs, around twice as much as the
next C-chondite class, CK and so forth.

And another comment ... The stardust comet sampling mission picked up
Incan Sun-God CAI particles when it played tennis with 81P/Wild.

The Incan Sun God naming was NASA PR entertainment, but the particles
were really caught in the coma of "Wild-2"!

Kindest wishes
Doug

Hi all -

Simple question - what classes of meteorites have CAI inclusions?

E.P.
