Ab Initio Phase Diagram of Chromium to 2.5 TPa
Chromium possesses remarkable physical properties such as hardness and corrosion resistance. Chromium is also a very important geophysical material as it is assumed that lighter Cr isotopes were dissolved in the Earth’s molten core during the planet’s ...

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.

Principles and Treatment Methods for Metal Isotopes Analysis
BACKGROUND In the past twenty years, methods for metal isotopes analysis (iron, copper, zinc, magnesium, calcium, lithium, molybdenum, selenium, mercury, chromium, cadmium, alum, barium, titanium, etc.) have been established.

Identifying the original impactor from craters remains challenging. Here, the authors use chromium and oxygen isotopes to indicate that the Zhamanshin astrobleme impactor was a carbonaceous chrondrite by demonstrating that depleted 17O values are due to ...

The oxic degradation of sedimentary organic matter 1400 Ma constrains atmospheric oxygen levels [PDF]
We studied sediments from the ca. 1400 million-year-old Xiamaling Formation from the North China block. The upper unit of this formation (unit 1) deposited mostly below storm wave base and contains alternating black and green-gray shales with very ...

A new type of solar-system material recovered from Ordovician marine limestone
Meteorites falling on Earth today are believed to represent 100–150 parent bodies. Within 470 Myr ago sediments at a limestone quarry in Sweden, Schmitz et al.
