[meteorite-list] Comets as meteorite source: another comet sample

[Jason Utas]

Hello Ed, All,
Frank T. Kyte did supposedly find a piece of the Chicxulub impactor in a
core sample.
His research, however, indicated that the fragment that he discovered was
not cometary, but asteroidal in composition.  He determined it to be either
CV, CR, or CO.

Regards,
Jason
