Abstract
Abstract— The Olton ordinary chondrites (two stones found in 1948) are H group, solar wind‐bearing regolith breccias. The proximity of the recovery site to the Dimmitt strewnfield, and the similarity in texture, composition, noble gas contents and isotopic ratios to Dimmitt indicate that Olton is paired with Dimmitt.Keywords
