McCOY T.J. (1995) Silicate-bearing IIE irons: Early mixing and differentiation in a core-mantle environment and shock resetting of ages (abs. Meteoritics 30-5, 1995, 542-543): ... The chondritic precursor was probably not identical to H chondrites.

CLARKE R.S. Jr. et al. (1992) Clues to the developmental and disintegration history of the Watson (and probably also the Kodaikanal) IIE iron meteorite parent body (Meteoritics 27-3, 1992, A210): The Watson iron meteorite contains a large silicate mass of H-group composition, igneous texture, and of IIE oxygen isotopes linking anew the IIEs and the H chondrites.
