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.

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.

Attempted break-up of Rodinia at 850 Ma: geochronological evidence from the Seve–Kalak Superterrane, Scandinavian Caledonides

TL;DR: In this article, the authors interpreted the evidence of 850-900 Ma magmatism in Scandinavia, Scotland and Taimyr as bimodal rift magmatisms in connected arms during an attempted break-up of Rodinia.

Rare earth element geochemistry of massive sulfides-sulfates and gossans on the Southern Explorer Ridge

TL;DR: In this paper, a modified inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometric technique was used to analyze massive sulfide-sulfate deposits on the Southern Explorer Ridge for 14 rare earth elements (REE).

Aqueous alteration in the Northwest Africa 817 (NWA 817) Martian meteorite

TL;DR: In this paper, a new Martian meteorite of the nakhlite family (NWA 817) was found to contain traces of an iron-rich alteration product, which has been formed on the parent body of the meteorite (Mars).

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.
