Field and Laboratory Investigations of Meteorites from Victoria Land and the Thiel Mountains Region, Antarctica, 1982-1983 and 1983-1984
This monograph describes the meteorite collecting activities of the United States Antarctic Search for Meteorites (ANSMET) expeditions of the 1982-1983 and 1983-1984 field seasons. Descriptions and classifications are given of most specimens collected during the 1982-1983 season and some of those co...
