[meteorite-list] Let's talk about meteorites

[Carl 's]

No apology is needed, Dr. Rubin. You are crystal clear. It's just that I'm as dumb as an ox. It takes a bit of doing on  my part for all that information to sink in. You've also explained the two inclusions in my little slice of Muonionalusta! I had wondered about them as well.

So after the IAB, IIE or IIICD iron sank to the crater floor with some melted silicate debris it must have experienced another collision from another asteroid to later find it's way to Earth.

I would ask what of 'Patagonia'? See:

Are these silicated irons as well?

Carl
