Scientific paper

The two models of carbonaceous chondrite precursor material presently formulated to study the process of aqueous alteration in hydrous asteroids are based, in the first case, on the anhydrous mineralogy of CM chondrites, while the second is based on that of the CV chondrites. It is noted that the alteration mineralogy of the CM chondrites and their parent asteroids may be produced by starting with the anhydrous mineralogy of the same CM chondrites, at temperatures in the 1-25 C range, with a wide variety of rock/fluid ratios. The mineralogy of the important CI chondrites is reproducible through the alteration of either CM or CV anhydrous material, at temperatures in the 50-150 C.
