Scientific paper

The Beaver-Harrison, Utah chondrite (find July 24, 1979), a single, shock- veined stone of 925 grams, consists of major olivine (Fa25.0), low-Ca pyroxene (En77.3FS21.1WO1.6) and metallic nickel-iron; minor troilite and plagioclase (Ab82.6AN11.1Or6.3), accessory high-Ca pyroxene (En47.0FS8.5WO44.5), chromite (Cm8.7Sp10.6UV9.4PC0.6HC0.7), chlorapatite and whitlockite; and hydrous ferric oxide of terrestrial weathering origin. Mineral compositions indicate L-group classification, and homogeneity of minerals, highly recrystallized texture and presence of clear plagioclase suggest that the meteorite belongs to petrologic type 6.
