Scientific paper

Results of bulk chemical analyses and mineralogical and petrographic studies of a chondrite found at Kramer Creek, Colorado, are reported. The meteorite has been classified as an L-group chondrite on the basis of its bulk chemistry, the fayalite content of its olivine (21.7%) and the ferrosilicate content of its pyroxene (18.3%). The presence of interstitial glass and the iron oxide percent mean deviations for olivine and low-Ca pyroxene (2.4 and 4.6%) place the specimen in petrologic group 4 of the Van Schmus and Wood classification (1967)
