Hello Mendy and All,
The term, Olivine Diogenite', is widely used and accepted by many scientists. If it doesn't fit into a known classification, why pigeon hole it? The more meteorites that are recovered reveals an even more diverse 'population' of meteorite types that require new 'pigeon holes' to group them into. I applaud the scientists who think outside the box and propose and adopt proper new classification designations.

Best Regards,
Greg Hupe
