Abstract
In a previous paper attention was drawn to the close similarity in mineral and chemical composition of chondritic meteoric stones. In the case of about forty chondrites it was shown that, apart from variations in the amount of nickel-iron, not only are the constituent minerals present in very similar amounts, but their chemical compositions vary to no very great extent. In that paper sufficient importance was not attached to the variations in the amount of nickel-iron.Keywords
