[meteorite-list] Sutter's Mill BSE - two more

[Richard Montgomery]

Carl and List,

I'm struck by the chondrule variation...can't wait to see a TS (hi 
Anne!)....so it's time to ask about the rabbit hole:

As I mentioned I'm just guessing here....not a CM2, due to chondrules 
actually so present, right? Not a CM3 either (if there ever is such a thing) 
due to the rim alterations and aqueous stuff; dark matrix like a CM, yet 
more crowded chondrules; complete CaO crystals; lacking so far of seeing any 
CAIs....what's your guess at this point??

Next Halloween I can dress up as a petrologist scientist....but won't fool 
anyone.  Fun to speculate, though.

Richard M
