Lithic clasts and mineral fragments in Yamato-79 howardites, Y-790727,Y-791208 and Y-791492 have been investigated by optical microscopy, electron microprobe and single crystal X-ray diffraction. These howardites are chemically intermediate between ordinary diogenites and eucrites, and distinct from...
