Origin of Isotopic Diversity among Carbonaceous Chondrites
The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023 Carbonaceous chondrites are some of the most primitive meteorites and derive from planetesimals that formed a few million years after the beginning of the solar system.

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Kivesvaara C2 chondrite: silicate petrography and chemical composition [PDF]
Bulletin of the Geological Society of Finland, 1983 Fragments of the Kivesvaara meteorite were said to have been found in Paltamo, northern Finland in 1968. The chemical and mineral composition and the textural features show that this meteorite is a rare C2 carbonaceous chondrite.

Possible Ribose Synthesis in Carbonaceous Planetesimals
Life, 2022 The origin of life might be sparked by the polymerization of the first RNA molecules in Darwinian ponds during wet-dry cycles. The key life-building block ribose was found in carbonaceous chondrites.

Metal compositions of carbonaceous chondrites [PDF]
Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2022 FeNi metals represent an important fraction of chondritic components that remains relatively unexplored within most carbonaceous chondrite groups. The compositions of these metals can place constraints on the nature of their precursor materials as well as the physicochemical conditions of chondrule formation.
