Writeup from AMN 33(1):
MET
01017 original classification in AMN 26, no. 2, as
a CR2 chondrite, but several studies have brought information to light that
is inconsistent with that classification. Raman data, as well as
isotopic data for C, H, and O indicate this meteorite is not a CR2, but a CV3
(possibly reduced) chondrite [1]. Because the type of CV3 is not clear,
and it has anomalous properties, we will reclassify it as CV3 an.
