Scientific paper

The structure and mineralogy of high-porosity fragments found recently in the Saratov chondrite are described. The porous fragments are composed of fine-grained silicate aggregates. Its unusual structural and mineralogical features put it into a separate petrographic component, which is most similar to the friable particles of interplanetary dust and somewhat less so to lunar breccias and agglutinates. It is suggested that the occurrence of these fragments in a chondrite might be evidence of the presence in space of friable bodies.
