Abstract
Abstract— The Pine River IAB iron‐with‐silicate‐inclusions and the anomalous stony meteorite Mount Morris (Wisconsin) were recovered from closely neighbouring localities. Literature data on the petrography, mineralogy, and oxygen isotopic compositions of Mt. Morris (Wis.) and silicates in Pine River are virtually identical. Additionally, total carbon contents and carbon isotopic compositions (δ13C rel. to PDB) of both meteorites (this work) are within experimental error. These data combined with historical and geographical evidence suggest that Mt. Morris (Wis.) and Pine River are pieces of the same meteorite.
