Table 3. Tentative Pairing for New Meteorites

Table 3 summarizes possible pairings of the new specimens with each other and with previously classified specimens based on descriptive data in this newsletter issue. Readers who desire a more comprehensive review of the meteorite pairings in the U.S. Antarctic collection should refer to the compilation provided by Dr. E.R. D. Scott, as published in the Antarctic Meteorite Newsletter vol. 9 (no. 2) (June 1986). Possible pairings were updated in Meteoritical Bulletins 76, 79, 82 through 100, which are available online from the Meteoritical Society Webpage.
