[meteorite-list] metachondrite

[Jeff Grossman]

  This is a term coined by Ted Bunch and Tony Irving, but to my 
knowledge there is no peer-reviewed publication defining the term.  
You'll find the definition in an AGU and a MetSoc abstract:

http://www.lpi.usra.edu/meetings/metsoc2005/pdf/5218.pdf
http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2006AGUFM.P51E1246B

The term is not in widespread use and has not been used in the 
Meteoritical Bulletin.  Time will tell if it catches on.
