Halogens in chondritic meteorites and terrestrial accretion

Abstract: Volatile element delivery and retention played a fundamental part in Earth's formation and subsequent chemical differentiation. The heavy halogens-chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I)-are key tracers of accretionary processes owing to their high volatility and incompatibility, but have low abundances in most geological and planetary materials. However, noble gas proxy isotopes produced during neutron irradiation provide a high-sensitivity tool for the determination of heavy halogen abundances. Using such… Show more

“…Errors are reported as 1 standard deviations, unless otherwise noted. For a CI chondritic composition, we adopted the value proposed by for most elements, with some modifications for halogens (Clay et al, 2017), Mo, Tl, Bi (Wang et al, 2015), highly siderophile elements (Day et al, 2016), and U (Wipperfurth et al, 2018) (Table 2).…”

“…Thus, new estimate of the average iodine concentration in carbonaceous chondrites, 127 I CH = 4.5 × 10 −10 mol g −1 [Clay et al, 2017], gives 129 Xe(I)/ 136 Xe(Pu) CH = 1.5 × 10 3 , which is quite a large value still.…”

“…Regarding the abundance and source of terrestrial iodine, it should be noted that to provide the planet with volatile components, it is necessary to add ≈ 0.015× M EARTH of a chondrites-like material [Clay et al, 2017;Kramers, 2003;Marty, 2012]. Such an amount corresponds to 127 I BSE ≈ 10 × 10 −9 g g −1 , which is close to the maximum value used by Caracausi et al [2016].…”

“…The necessary chondritic component is increased further if lower chlorine contents are used (i.e., Clay et al. ). Additionally, an independent estimate that satisfies other isotopic constraints (i.e., Dauphas et al.…”

“…To account for 85% of Earth's chlorine by ECs requires 3.6% EC addition when using the highest range of chlorine concentrations . The necessary chondritic component is increased further if lower chlorine contents are used (i.e., Clay et al 2017). Additionally, an independent estimate that satisfies other isotopic constraints (i.e., Dauphas et al 2014) using some amount of ordinary chondrites would require an even larger chondritic component.…”
