All four chondrites are unequilibrated, as indicated by well shaped chondrules and the chemical variations of olivine and low-Ca pyroxene. The modal abundance ratio of matrix/chondrule are 2 ( GRV 020017), 2. 8 ( GRV 020025 ), l. 2 ( GRV 021579 ), 1 ( GRV 022459 ). GRV 022459 has the largest chondrules (0.6--2.0 ram). A total of 30 Ca-Al-rich inclu- sions were found in the four meteorites. Most inclusions were highly altered, with a- bundant phyllosilicates in the inclusions of GRV 020017 and GRV 020025. On the base of petrography and mineral chemistry, these chondrites are classified as CM2 (GRV 020017 and 020025), CO3 (GRV 021579) and CV3 (GRV 022459).展开更多
