Table 3: Best fit of asteroids and meteorite spectra. The five first ranked meteorite analogs have been tabulated. When the meteorite is presented several times in the table for the same asteroid, this represents the differences in preparation of the analyzed sample. Metallic meteorites are the best fit for eight of our asteroids (the exception is the asteroid 766 Moguntia). The table also ranks a heated sample of meteorite Murchinson (marked by *), two samples of fresh cut Tagish Lake meteorite (one of them is presented for several asteroids), one Abee sample, one CM2 meteorite from Antarctica (LEW85311) and one lodranite (MAC88177). The last column show the slope of each asteroid NIR spectrum. We add the IRAS albedo (labeled A) when available.
