[meteorite-list] A question about crust.

[JKGwilliam]

I agree.  Any chips that are deep enough to show matrix should be 
listed, at best, as 99%, and drop in value from there.  Like so many 
other terms in the business of meteorites ( e.g. fusion crust, 
oriented ) the claim of 100% crusted if often misused.


Best,
John
