Dating climatic change in hot deserts using desert varnish on meteorite finds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
A thin coating of desert varnish occurs on Forrest 009 and Nurina 004, both equilibrated ordinary chondrite (L6) finds from the Nullarbor Plain, Australia.

Northwest Africa 5958: A weakly altered CM‐related ungrouped chondrite, not a CI3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Northwest Africa (NWA) 5958 is a carbonaceous chondrite found in Morocco in 2009. Preliminary chemical and isotopic data leading to its initial classification as C3.0 ungrouped have prompted us to conduct a multitechnique study of this meteorite and ...

The Winchcombe meteorite – a regolith breccia from a rubble-pile CM chondrite asteroid [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The Winchcombe meteorite is a CM chondrite breccia composed of eight distinct lithological units plus a cataclastic matrix. The degree of aqueous alteration varies between intensely altered CM2.0 and moderately altered CM2.6.

Mineralogy and petrology of Dominion Range 08006: A very primitive CO3 carbonaceous chondrite

open access: yesGeochimica et Cosmochimica Acta, 2019
Here we report the relative degrees of thermal metamorphism for five Antarctic Ornans-like carbonaceous (CO) chondrites, including Dominion Range (DOM) 08006, as determined from the Cr-content of their FeO-rich (ferroan) olivine.

Chromites in ordinary-chondrite fusion crusts [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Mineralogy
Chromites from ordinary chondrites of groups H4, H5, LL5, LL6, L3.6 and L6 were studied and compared to an H5 ordinary chondrite processed to form a synthetic fusion crust.

Reclassification and thermal history of trenzano chondrite

open access: yes, 2007
We present a new single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) study performed on a suite of six orthopyroxene grains from the low-shocked H6 Trenzano meteorite. The quenched intracrystalline Fe2+-Mg ordering state in orthopyroxene preserves the memory of the

Microbial mediation of textures and minerals – terrestrial or parent body processes?

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2019
Evolution of chondritic parent body is influenced by thermal, impact metamorphism and aqueous alteration, studied in Mező-Madaras, Knyahinya, Mócs and Nyírábrány in aspect of high resolution in situ textural, mineralogical and organic geochemical ...

Micron-scale D/H heterogeneity in chondrite matrices: A signature of the pristine solar system water? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Organic matter and hydrous silicates are intimately mixed in the matrix of chondrites and in-situ determination of their individual D/H ratios is therefore challenging.
