Mineral Analyses of Eucrite-type Achondrites
Author
Description
Mineral analyses and mineral composition diagrams for 42 eucrites and eucrite-type achondrites determined by electron microprobe analyses at NASA-Johnson Space Center are presented. The data were collected to support petrologic interpretations of the meteorites as given in the related publications identified in the datafiles. Full analytical protocols for the analyses are presented in related publication #2.
