Abstract— Infrared diffuse reflectance spectra were measured for several thermally metamorphosed carbonaceous chondrites with CI‐CM affinities which were recently found from Antarctica. Compared with other CI or CM carbonaceous chondrites, these Antarctic carbonaceous chondrites show weaker absorpti...
