It is shown in this preliminary note that the earlier lists of the exclusively meteoritic minerals are in error. On the basis of a review and an analysis of the available literature, it is proposed that a tentative , revised list of these minerals should include the following: daubréelite, kosmochlor, merrillite, oldhamite, osbornite, phosphorus, schreibersite, taenite, and weinbergerite.
