On the basis of the new Catalog of Antarctic Meteorites (Yanai, Kojima, Haramura, 1995) we carried out statistical analysis on the bulk composition of chondrites (of the 2987 classified chondrites on 403 samples). From averages of van Schmus-Wood petrologic classes (vSW-pc), we have projected paths of thermal evolution of chondritic parent bodies of E, H, L and LL types. Transformations in the ferrous compounds were projected to the vSW-table, then their changes between the vSW-pc stages were projected to the compositional field of the Fe + FeS vs Fe-oxides diagram. There the sequence of vSW-pc averages (representing higher and higher heat-impact with increasing vSW-pc numbers) formed an oxidation and reduction series from the initial reduction (for all types) through reoxidation (for H, L, LL types) until final outflow of iron (for L and LL types).
