 Nuclear properties are either constitutive or consecutive, in Meinong’s terms (Meinong 1972, 176). An object’s constitutive properties are those properties that are mentioned explicitly in a description that is used to pick out the object. Thus, the constitutive properties of the golden mountain are being golden and being a mountain. An object’s consecutive properties are those properties that are somehow included or implied by the object’s constitutive properties. Thus, among the consecutive properties of the golden mountain are probably the properties of being a material thing and of being extended.
