Meteorites:Classification

Scientific paper

The Brachina meteorite, previously classified as a chassignite, is found to be a nearly primitive meteorite. In spite of the striking similarity of mineralogy and major element composition to Chassigny, it has unique characteristics (e.g., oxygen isotopes, trace elements, gases, and age) that set it apart. It differs from all other meteorites in some regards, and the authors propose that it be reclassified as a new type.
