The Navier--Stokes order hydrodynamic equations for a low density granular mixture obtained previously from the Chapman--Enskog solution to the Boltzmann equation are considered further. The six transport coefficients associated with mass and heat flux in a binary mixture are given as functions of the mass ratio, size ratio, composition, and coefficients of restitution. Their quantitative variation across this parameter set is demonstrated using low order Sonine polynomial approximations to

... e the exact integral equations. The results are also used to quantify the violation of the Onsager reciprocal relations for a granular mixture. Finally, the stability of the homogeneous cooling state is discussed.
