Hi List, Many papers have been written about Sutter's Mill and specimens have been studied at various institutions for over two years. The initial and relatively-fast official classification was "C", which the bulletin states is a "carbonaceous chondrite". The only other meteorites classified as such in the bulletin are Japanese Antarctics (Yamato 793277,793581) and Yamatos 86767, 86770, 86771, 86772, 86773). Many people and collectors assumed this was a defacto temporary classification until more data was available to rule in/out other types and subtypes.
Question : has any of the subsequent research on Sutter's Mill provided any evidence about what exact type of carbonaceous chondrite it is? (CM, C-UNG, or ?)
