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,

Abstract Enstatite chondrites record highly reducing conditions in the early solar nebula, yet the origin of their abundant sulfides remains unclear. Niningerite (MgS) and oldhamite (CaS) are ubiquitous in EH3 enstatite chondrites and distinguish them from other chondrite groups.

Ductile Extrusion Triggered by Continental Collision in NE Brazil
ABSTRACT The Borborema Province in northeastern Brazil hosts one of the world's largest strike‐slip shear zone networks, active during the late Neoproterozoic assembly of West Gondwana. Whether these shear zones initiated during active continental collision or as a post‐orogenic response to far‐field stresses remains debated.

Puffy Venuses: The Mass–Radius Impact of Carbon-rich Atmospheres on Lava Worlds
The recent advancements in exoplanet observations enable the potential detection of exo-Venuses, rocky planets with carbon-rich atmospheres. How extended these atmospheres can be, given high carbon abundances, has not been studied.

Classification of stony meteorites and chondrules – the case of meteorite Jesenice
In the first part of the paper there is a description about genesis of meteorites, in particularly about stony meteorites– chondrites, since meteorite Jesenice is an ordinary L chondrite. Chondrules represent main part of the mass ofchondritic meteorites.

Trace element composition of silicate minerals from Kunashak Meteorite (L6)
Major (EPMA) and trace (SIMS) element geochemistry in the silicate minerals (olivine, pyroxene and plagioclase) of Kunashak equilibrated ordinary chondrite (L6) is described. No variations in the major element concentrations of the silicate minerals have
