Dear Bill, List; It may be worth noting again, be sure that you remember that the visible iron specks are only part of that equation as the total iron is the number for the L or H classification, and even though that WOULD APPEAR to be an L from a visual, if there is more elemental iron, it coul

Dear Mike, List; For a weight vs. mass comparison of piles of meteorites, go to your local rock quarry or aggregate plant and ponder a bit. Irons would be easier ascertained at a steel or scrap yard but for common (now there's a relative term) chondrites would be approximately equal to a lighte
