Melting phase relations of a Yamato L3 chondrite (Y-74191) have been studied in the pressure range 6 to 30 kbar. Solidus of the chondrite is defined by eutectic melting of Fe-Ni-S at about 950℃ regardless of pressure. At 15 kbar, silicate solidus of the chondrite is about 250℃ higher than the metal/...
