An asterisk
(*) following the name denotes an observed fall. Type specimens or 'Name-sakes'
for a particular classification are listed in green.
Meteorites which are associated with an impact crater of a reasonable size (~8m
or more) are listed in red.
There is also a list of meteorite name abbreviations used for meteorites from
Antarctica and popular desert locations.
Using the left
'Quick Menu' will give you immediate access to a particular classification. (Click
here if it does not appear.) If
you are trying to find out a particular meteorite's classification you can use
your browsers "Find" function which will search and find the
meteorite in this main page. I have also created this list to allow for accents
to words or letters, so that any search will still recognise the name. This
information is a basic listing of most meteorites and which classification they
belong to. For more detailed information, there are thousands of various sources
available such as books, scientific publications/papers along with other
internet sites such as the Natural History Museum (London) and the Meteoritical
Bulletin published by the Meteoritical Society.
