Halite and stable chlorine isotopes in the Zag H3-6 breccia [PDF]
Zag is an H3-6 chondrite regolith breccia within which we have studied 14 halite grains ?3mm. The purity of the associated NaCl-H2O brine is implied by freezing characteristics of fluid inclusions in the halite and EPMA analyses together with a lack of ...

Reduced and unstratified crust in CV chondrite parent body
Meteorites may unlock the history of the early solar system. Here, the authors find, through Ca-Fe-rich secondary phases, that the distinction between reduced and oxidized CV chondrites is invalid; therefore, CV3 chondrites are asteroid fragments that ...

Because of their numerical dominance among meteorite falls, their great age, and their primitive (i.e., quasisolar) compositions, the chondrites are central to discussions of the origin and early history of the solar system. The bibliography includes most American contributions m this field from 1967 to 1970, and this report attempts to summarize our ...

Chromium isotopic homogeneity between the Moon, the Earth, and enstatite chondrites [PDF]
Among the elements exhibiting non-mass dependent isotopic variations in meteorites, chromium (Cr) has been central in arguing for an isotopic homogeneity between the Earth and the Moon, thus questioning physical models of Moon formation.

Clays and the Origin of Life: The Experiments
There are three groups of scientists dominating the search for the origin of life: the organic chemists (the Soup), the molecular biologists (RNA world), and the inorganic chemists (metabolism and transient-state metal ions), all of which have ...

Fluid evolution in CM carbonaceous chondrites tracked through the oxygen isotopic compositions of carbonates [PDF]
The oxygen isotopic compositions of calcite grains in four CM carbonaceous chondrites have been determined by NanoSIMS, and results reveal that aqueous solutions evolved in a similar manner between parent body regions with different intensities of ...

Nanoscale Infrared Imaging Analysis of Carbonaceous Chondrites to Understand Organic-Mineral Interactions During Aqueous Alteration [PDF]
Organic matter in carbonaceous chondrites is distributed in fine-grained matrix. To understand pre- and postaccretion history of organic matter and its association with surrounding minerals, microscopic techniques are mandatory.

Mössbauer Study of Weathering Products in Meteorites from the Atacama Desert
During their stay at the surface of the Earth, meteorites undergo terrestrial weathering. In particular, the iron-nickel alloys and iron sulfides that are abundant in many types of meteorites transform into oxides and oxihydroxides (magnetite, maghemite,
