Noble gas content and isotope abundances in phases of the Saint‐Aubin (UNGR) iron meteorite

Abstract: available online at http://meteoritics.org Abstract-We analyzed the noble gas isotopes in the Fe-Ni metal and inclusions of the Saint-Aubin iron meteorite, utilizing the stepwise heating technique to separate the various components of noble gases. Noble gas content and isotope abundances in phases of the Saint-Aubin (UNGR) iron meteoriteThe light noble gases in all samples are mostly cosmogenic, with some admixture from the terrestrial atmosphere. Total abundances of noble gases in metal are one of the lowest … Show more

“…129 Xe/ 132 Xe ratios show more important variations with a clear excess of radiogenic 129 Xe in all except the final extraction steps that lies close to the atmospheric composition (Table ). These results are consistent with previous reports of Kr and Xe concentrations within troilites from iron meteorites [ Mathew and Marti , ; Nishimura et al ., ]. No significant mass variation was observed following the HF/HCl treatment, but the FeS‐HCl residues displayed a significant gas loss compared to the initial material, both for Kr (≈53%) and Xe (≈38%; Figure and Table ).…”

“…In contrast, the release pattern of noble gases trapped within pyrrhotite closely resembles that of the Q gases, with a major release of Kr and Xe occurring between 900 and 1200°C (Figure ). Similar results were obtained for each of the five noble gases released from troilite from the Saint Aubin iron meteorite (ungrouped) [ Nishimura et al ., ], demonstrating that nickel‐poor iron sulfides match the thermal characteristics of phase Q. The high‐temperature release is directly linked to the incongruent dissociation of pyrrhotite, which occurs in the range 1000–1200°C, depending on the stoichiometry [ Kellerud , ].…”
