Major, minor and trace elements in iron meteorites
Mostly the results of instrumental neutron activation analyses (INAA) of iron meteorites are stored in this database. The element abundances in iron meteorites are important for a proper classification of a meteorite into taxonomic groups, relating to common parent bodies.
The following (mainly siderophile) elements are considered:
Ni, Ga, Ge, Ir, Co, Cr, Cu, As, Sb, W, Re, Pt, Os, Pd, Rh, Ru, Au, P
Printout example: element abundances for Gibeon and its pairings
