Description:
Description of the Seoni (India, 1966) chondrite in terms of its mineralogy, bulk chemistry, and sample shape and mass. It is an H6 group ordinary chondrite that contains olivine, orthopyroxene, clinopyroxene, plagioclase, together with chromite, troilite, kamacite, taenite, chlorapatite, and whitlockite. Recrystallization has been quite extensive, as indicated by the presence of a few remnant chondrules, low abundance of clinopyroxene, and relatively high abundance of well formed plagioclase.
