1The geographic coordinates of these meteorites have not been disclosed by the finder. Listed are the offsets relative to a secret origin at (x°W longitude, y°N latitude, where x and y are integers).
2Slashes (e.g., L5/6) indicate transitional classes, hyphens (e.g., H5-6) indicate breccias, groups in parentheses indicate uncertain assignments.
3Shock classification after Stöffler et al. (1991). For measurements done at MNHNP, only reflected-light microscopy was used.
4Weathering grade after Wlotzka (1993).
5Locations of type specimens: (a) MNHNP, classified by M. Bourot-Denise; (b) OU, classified by A. Sexton; (c) MNHNP, classified by C. Fiéni, M. Ghélis and B. Zanda; (d) Mün, classified by A. Bischoff and D. Weber.
6Sahara 97009, 97039, and 97042 have fayalite contents near the top of the LL range, but have O isotopes and bulk composition that are distinct from LL (Sexton et al., 1998). Fiéni, Ghélis and Zanda (MNHNP) classified Sahara 97009 as an LL6 with Fa31.9 olivine and Fs26.0Wo2.4 pyroxene.
7Latitude probably is between y+0°09'01"N and y+0°09'16"N and longitude between x+0°28'54"W and x+0°28'60"W.
8Petrologic subtype was estimated visually in reflected light (see Bourot-Denise et al., 1997). Ranges of mineral compositions: olivine, Fa17.1–24.7; pyroxene, Fs8.9–29.7 Wo0.5–13.1.
