Diogenites, Eucrites, Howardite: Crystalline, Howardites

Scientific paper

Binda meteorite, originally classified as howardite (Hey, 1966), was reclassified as eucrite of monomict breccia (Duke and Silver, 1967). Binda was recognized as the most Mg-rich eucrite (or most Fe-rich diogenite) with crystalline-unbrecciated texture for long time. Therefore Binda is believed to have genetic significance in relation to eucrites and diogenites, because in howardite group Binda is the only specimen with unbrecciated or monomict and crystalline texture. Re-examination of Binda was carried out by EPMA, microscope analysis and wet chemical analysis. Binda is the most common (ordinary) encrite showing crystalline texture with slightly brecciated.
