Scientific paper

Reported electron microprobe analyses and petrographic studies show that Almelo Township (L6), Beeler (LL6), Kalvesta (H4), Phillips County (L6), and Yocemento (L5) are typical ordinary chondrites. Selden is found to have abnormally iron-rich silicates and nickel-rich metal, and the chondrite may represent a lower petrologic type that has been shocked to an LL5. Shielding corrected exposure ages range from 0.80 m.y. (Kalvesta) to 47.0 m.y. (Yocemento).
