Detailed Mineral List:

'Apatite'
Formula: Ca5(PO4)3(Cl/F/OH)
Chromite
Formula: Fe2+Cr3+2O4
Copper
Formula: Cu
Diopside
Formula: CaMgSi2O6
'Fayalite-Forsterite Series'
Description: Olivine composition [Fa19] characteristic of H-group ordinary chondrites (Mason,1963).
Halite
Formula: NaCl
Ilmenite
Formula: Fe2+TiO3
Iron
Formula: Fe
Iron var. Kamacite
Formula: (Fe,Ni)
Isocubanite
Formula: CuFe2S3
Description: Ramdohr (1973) explicitly states that he lists only those minerals that he considers 'primary' (preterrestrial). It is also worth noting that Ramdohr did not consider Modoc (1948) unusually weathered ('strongly weathered') as he would do from time to time in his observations with other meteorites.
'Orthopyroxene Subgroup'
Pentlandite
Formula: (NixFey)Σ9S8
'Plagioclase'
Formula: (Na,Ca)[(Si,Al)AlSi2]O8
Description: Composition of Plagioclase (An 9) is markedly albitic (Mason & Wiik, 1967).
Pyrite
Formula: FeS2
References:
Taenite
Formula: (Fe,Ni)
Troilite
Formula: FeS
