Native Platinum in the Ordinary Chondrite
The article presents the first results of the study of native platinum extracted from chondrite. The native platinum forms microinclusions in carbonaceous matter andchromites, which are found in ordinary chondrite.

Rare earth elements in Proterozoic metabasalts and associated volcanogenic sulphide ore from Haveri, southwestern Finland [PDF]
REE data on two tholeiitic metabasalts and a metalava breccia from the Haveri formation display a coherent distribution pattern from La 28 to Lu 7 times that of chondrite.

High pressure minerals in the Château-Renard (L6) ordinary chondrite: implications for collisions on its parent body [PDF]
We report the first discoveries of high-pressure minerals in the historical L6 chondrite fall Château-Renard, based on co-located Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and electron backscatter ...

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces
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.

The effect of aqueous alteration and metamorphism in the survival of presolar silicate grains in chondrites [PDF]
Relatively small amounts (typically between 2-200 parts per million) of presolar grains have been preserved in the matrices of chondritic meteorites.

Kivesvaara C2 chondrite: silicate petrography and chemical composition [PDF]
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.

Spectral properties of the largest asteroids associated with Taurid Complex [PDF]
We obtained spectra of six of the largest asteroids (2201, 4183, 4486, 5143, 6063, and 269690) associated with Taurid complex. The observations were made with the IRTF telescope equipped with the spectro-imager SpeX.
