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.

Françoisite-(Ce), a new mineral species from La Creusaz uranium deposit (Valais, Switzerland) and from Radium Ridge (Flinders Ranges, South Australia): Description and genesis

TL;DR: The new mineral francoisite-(Ce), (Ce,Nd,Ca)[(UO 2 ) 3 O(OH)(PO 4 ) 2 ]·6H 2 O is the Ce-analog of Francoisite-(Nd), which has been discovered simultaneously at the La Creusaz uranium deposit near Les Marecottes in Valais, Switzerland, and at the Number 2 uranium Workings, Radium Ridge near Mt. Painter, Arkaroola area, Northern Flinders Ranges in South Australia as discussed by the authors.

Origin and Intensive Parameters in the Crystallization of Ultrapotassic Syenites: The Serra Do Man Pluton, Northeastern Brazil

TL;DR: The late Neoproterozoic ultrapotassic Serra do Man pluton intruded supracrustal schists and igneous rocks of the Alto Pajeu tectonostratigraphic terrane, in the Borborema province of northeastern Brazil.

Paleoproterozoic late-orogenic and anorogenic alkaline granitic magmatism from northeast Brazil

TL;DR: In this paper, two silica-saturated alkaline granite suites were intruded along the border of the Sao Francisco craton, northeastern Brazil, with dykes of similar composition and age (2.157±5 Ma).

Caractérisation du magmatisme Protérozoïque supérieur en Afrique de l'ouest et implications géodynamiques : des rifts intracratoniques au Panafricain?

TL;DR: The main petrological, mineralogical, and geochemical features of the metavolcanites belonging to the Late Proterozoic tectono-sedimentary units of southern Mauritanides (Termesse and Niokolo Koba-Koulountou) and western Hoggar, Algeria (Timesselarsine), permit a reconstruction of the geodynamic environment that controlled the evolution of the Pan-African ranges of western Africa.

Geochemistry, geochronology, and origin of the Neoarchean Planalto Granite suite, Carajás, Amazonian craton: A-type or hydrated charnockitic granites?

TL;DR: In this paper, a whole-rock geochemistry and LA-MC-ICPMS and Pb-evaporation geochronological data were obtained on zircon from the Neoarchean Planalto suite granites and associated charnockitic rocks of the Canaa area of the Carajas province, eastern Amazonian craton, Brazil.

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.
