... Introduction: E-, M- and S-type asteroids are widely considered as remnants of differentiated parent bodies; specifically, Ms might have been their cores [e. g., 1, 2]. The conviction is based on the visible-range albedo (medium to high) and overall spectral curves (slightly reddish to red) of the small planets corresponding to these of metal iron and igneous silicate assemblages. ... It seems the spectral features superimpose to the spectral characteristics of metal iron and igneous silicates. ...
