Scientific paper

The Ella Island, Greenland, meteorite was found in August of 1971. Electron microprobe study of the meteorite revealed it to contain olivine, low-calcium pyroxene, high-calcium pyroxene, plagioclase, kamacite, taenite, chromian-hercynite and troilite. On the basis of fayalite and ferrosilite content, poorly-defined chondrules, absence of glass in chondrules, presence of well-developed feldspar in the matrix and chondrules, and degree of recrystallization of the matrix, the Ella Island meteorite is classified as an L-6 chondrite.
