Dear Rhett,Bernd and list In general when obtaining a measurement outside the norm (here Fa% for H within 17-20), the inference this is an anomalous meteorite should not be put forward before answering the questions: -does the norm apply to this case? (obviously not for type 3 which by

Hello Bernd and list, Glad to see that my question has drawn some discussion and especially happy to see Bernd answered. I'm not suprised to see wide ranges of fayalite within type 3 chondrites as those have not been homogenized and it would actually be expected that some rather extreme values

There are ordinary chondrites more reduced than the H group. Burnwell is one. Others were studied by: Wasson J. T., Rubin A. E., Kallemeyn G. W. (1993) Reduction during metamorphism of four ordinary chondrites. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 57 (8), 1867-1878. If memory serves, some of the
