The Asuka-87 and Asuka-88 collections of Antarctic meteorites: Preliminary examination with brief descriptions of some typical and unique-unusual specimens
Preliminary examinations were carried out of over 2400 pieces of the new Asuka meteorites after the initial processing at the NIPR. According to the initial processing, the Asuka-87 meteorite collection consists of one iron, one stony-iron, 9 achondrites, 3 carbonaceous meteorites and over 300 chond...
