THE AGE OF TISSINT: Sm-Nd & Rb-Sr ISOTOPE SYSTEMATICS OF A MARTIAN METEORITE FALL
Introduction: The recently acquired meteorite Tissint is the first recognized fall of a depleted shergottite. Other such shergottites were found in the hot deserts (e.g., NWA 1195, Dhofar 019, DAG 476) or in the Antarctic cold desert (e.g., QUE 94201, Y980459) and, in many cases, have disturbed isotopic systematics due to terrestrial contamination [1-4]. Tissint represents the freshest sample o...
متن کاملNew Insights on Martian Atmospheric Neon from Martian Meteorite, Dhofar
Introduction: Martian space probe, Viking landers could not measure Ne isotopic ratios, but only had the concentration of Ne as 2.5 ppm (error +3.5, -1.5) in Martian atmosphere [1]. After that, there have been many efforts to determine Ne isotopic composition of Martian atmosphere, by examining the Martian atmospheric gases trapped in impact glasses of the EET 79001 and other shergottites [2-6]...

متن کاملAre oxidized shergottite-like basalts an alternative to ‘‘andesite’’ on Mars?
[1] We acquired new thermal emission spectra of oxidized synthetic Martian meteorite-like basalts for comparison to Martian surface spectra acquired by the Mars Global Surveyor Thermal Emission Spectrometer (MGS TES). We find that true thermal emission spectra of the oxidized basalts do not provide good spectral matches to the Martian spectra. By contrast, previous biconical reflectance spectra...
متن کاملSignatures of the martian atmosphere in glass of the Zagami meteorite.
Isotopic signatures of nitrogen, argon, and xenon have been determined in separated millimeter-sized pockets of shock-melted glass in a recently identified lithology of the meteorite Zagami, a shergottite. The ratio of nitrogen-15 to nitrogen-14, which is at least 282 per mil larger than the terrestrial value, the ratio of xenon-129 to xenon-132 = 2.40, and the argon isotopic abundances match t...
