Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2022 Enstatite chondrites are a small clan of meteorites, only ~ 1% out of all meteorite collection. However, they are the most reduced meteorites and have almost identical isotopic compositions to those of the Earth, suggestive of significant contributions ...

The Nitrogen Heterocycle Content of Meteorites and Their Significance for the Origin of Life
Life, 2018 Carbonaceous chondrites are very primitive meteorites that are rich in carbon. They contain many soluble organic compounds, including nitrogen heterocycles.

Thermal Alteration of Labile Elements in Carbonaceous Chondrites
, 2018 Carbonaceous chondrite meteorites are some of the oldest Solar System planetary materials available for study. The CI group has bulk abundances of elements similar to those of the solar photosphere.

Communications Earth & EnvironmentSamples from the carbonaceous asteroid Ryugu and CI (Ivuna-type) chondrites are dominated by low-temperature, aqueously formed secondary minerals, with rare occurrences of anhydrous primary minerals that formed in the high-temperature region of the solar

Organic material in meteorites and the link to the origin of life
BIO Web of Conferences, 2014 Life requires specific conditions that have been, so far, only proven to meet on Earth. Though the chemical elements required to form living organism (C, H, N, O, S, etc) are widespread in the universe, the molecules that are crucial for Life, like ...

FT-IR spectroscopic studies of major organic matter in carbonaceous chondrites using microscopic technique and comparison with terrestrial kerogen [PDF]
, 1994 Infrared (IR) absorption spectra of major types of carbonaceous matter in four Antarctic carbonaceous chondrites (Y-74662,Y-791198,ALH-77307,Y-791717) and two non-Antarctic carbonaceous chondrites (Murchison, Allende) were taken using a microscopic FT-IR

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.Rare earth elements can act as mediators in a prebiotic reaction network, producing various intermediates of the citric acid cycle starting from glyoxylate and pyruvate. The ionic radius and the resulting variation in Lewis acidity has a significant influence on the observed product scope.

Unique evidence of fluid alteration in the Kakowa (L6) ordinary chondrite
Scientific Reports, 2022 Meteorites preserve evidence of processes on their parent bodies, including alteration, metamorphism, and shock events. Here we show that the Kakowa (L6) ordinary chondrite (OC) preserves both shock-melt veins and pockets of detrital grains from a ...

Pyrolytic nature of carbonaceous matter in carbonaceous chondrites and secondary metamorphsm [PDF]
, 1991 Major carbonaceous matter in five C2 carbonaceous chondrites (Y-791198,Y-74662,Murchison, B-7904,and Y-793321) and six C3 carbonaceous chondrites (Allende, Y-790992,Y-791717,Y-81020,ALH-77003,and ALH-77307) was investigated by pyrolysis-gas ...
