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.

Isotopic and trace element geochemistry of alkalic–mafic–ultramafic–carbonatitic complexes and flood basalts in NE India: Origin in a heterogeneous Kerguelen plume

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided new Nd-Sr-Pb-isotopic and trace element data on 21 unreported discrete lava flows of the Rajmahal Traps, 56 alkalic-carbonatitic-mafic-ultramafic rocks from four alkalic complexes, and three dikes from the Gondwana Bokaro coalfields, all belonging to the RBST.

Accumulation of rare earth elements in maize plants (Zea mays L.) after application of mixtures of rare earth elements and lanthanum

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of mixtures of rare earth elements and lanthanum on maize plants were studied in pot experiments, and the results indicated that the Gd and Ce anomaly in corns might be considered as important parameters for the safety assessment of agricultural application of rare-earth elements.

Clay Mineralogy and Chemical Composition of Bentonites from the Gourougou Volcanic Massif (Northeast Morocco)

TL;DR: In this article, five bentonites originating from different environments were selected for the present study: hydrothermal alteration of obsidian perlite glass inside the volcanoes themselves (Providencia and Tribia deposits), alteration of pyroclastic flows in a marine shallow water to lagoonal lacustrine environment (Ibourhardayn deposit), ash falls in marine or lacustine systems (Moulay Rachid and Melg el Ouidan (formerly Camp Berteau) deposits), and mixed-layer beidellite-montmorillonite

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.
