Catalog of the Collection of Meteorites

INTRODUCTION

This is the fourth catalog to be published for the meteorite col- lection of the Chicago Natural History Museum. The preceding catalogs were published in 1895, 1903, and 1916. Over the past forty-eight years the collection has increased in size to a point where a new catalog was felt to be necessary.

At the present time there are approximately 2,400 catalog num- bers assigned to specimens in this collection. Such numbers are, in a sense, not an accurate measure of the extent of the meteorite col- lection for, in some cases, one number may be assigned to many hun- dreds of specimens, as in the case of individuals from a meteorite shower, or a large meteorite which fragmented badly on impact. For example, in the collection Canon Diablo is represented by 63 individuals, Estherville by 145 individuals, and Forest City by 688 individuals. On the other hand, one meteorite, specimens of which were acquired over a period of years, may have several cata- log numbers assigned to it.

A more accurate measure of the extent of the collection is in terms of the representation of the number of known finds and falls. On the basis of the figures given by Mason {Meteorites, p. 22, 1962, John Wiley and Sons, New York) current coverage is as follows:

%0F

Kind Museum World Total World Total

Irons 3S8 578 58%

Stony-irons 33 66 50%

Chondrites 437 954 46%

Achondrites 37 64 58%

Totals 845 1662 51% ^

No attempt has been made to assess the total gross weight of the collection; it is undoubtedly in the thousands of kilograms. The smallest weight specimen represented is Middlesbrough at 0.1 gram; the largest weight specimen is Navajo at 1,497,618 grams. In a num-

ber of cases the collection contains all, or virtually all, of individual meteorites as, for example, Navajo, Quinn Canyon and Paragould. The Chicago Natural History Museum collection represents one of the larger concentrations of meteorite materials in the world. The size and extent of the collection are largely due to the efforts of Dr. 0. C. Farrington (1864-1933), former Curator of Geology, and the late Mr. Stanley Field, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Museum, who together added the major portions of the collection through a combination of purchases, exchanges, and field finds.
