TLDR
In this article, 15 chondrites, including eight carbonaceous chondites, were analyzed for rare earth element abundances by isotope dilution, and the persistence of anomalies in chondritic materials relatively removed from direct condensational processes implies that anomalous components were introduced at a late stage of chondrite formation.

Étude multi-approches des voiles bactériens du Paléoprotérozoïque (2,1 Ga, Gabon) : Biogénicité, minéralogie et biogéochimie

TL;DR: Ceci et al. as discussed by the authors investigated the sedimentation of Gabon and found that the concentration of elements traces (TE) in the MRS is higher than in the sediment encaissant.

Nature of Cretaceous dolerite dikes with two distinct trends in the Damodar Valley, eastern India: Constraints on their linkage to mantle plumes and large igneous provinces from 40Ar/39Ar geochronology and geochemistry

TL;DR: In this article, two distinct sets of Cretaceous dolerite dikes intrude the Chhotanagpur gneissic complex of eastern India, mostly within the Damodar Valley Gondwanan sedimentary basins.

Partial melting of ultrahigh-pressure metamorphic rocks at convergent continental margins: Evidences, melt compositions and physical effects

TL;DR: In this paper, the phase equilibrium model of UHP metamorphic melts is used to predict when partial melting occurred if the P-T path of a given rock is provided, and the residual assemblages after melt extraction are also significant to indicate partial melting.

Origine, évolution et exhumation des leucogranites peralumineux de la chaîne hercynienne armoricaine : implication sur la métallogénie de l'uranium

TL;DR: In this paper, the cycle of the formation of leucogranites in the Massif armoricain is investigated. But, the main focus of the work is to understand the evolution of the leucoglranites and their exhumation in sub-surface.

Synthesis of the Elements in Stars

TL;DR: In this article, a count of the stable and radioactive elements and isotopes is given, and Table I,1 shows that only promethium has not been found in nature, whereas 99 elements are found terrestrially and technetium is found in stars.

Determination of REE, Ba, Fe, Mg, Na and K in carbonaceous and ordinary chondrites

TL;DR: In this paper, the exact determination of REE and Ba abundances in three carbonaceous (Orgueil Cl, Murchison C2 and Allende C3) and seven olivine-bronzite chondrites were carried out by mass spectrometric isotope dilution technique.

A chemical-petrologic classification for the chondritic meteorites.

TL;DR: In this article, a two-dimensional classification grid based on chemical and petrologic subdivisions of chondritic meteorites is proposed, which extends the current chemical subdivisions to account for varying petrolic (implied metamorphic) properties within the primary chemical groups.
