We investigated the complicated thermal histories of 8 Antarctic enstatite chondrites. In this report we present results of our mineralogical and petrological studies. Three of them (Yamato (Y)-791790,791810 and 791811) are EH4 chondrites, but experienced higher temperature events in comparison with...
