The Ni, Fe and Co contents of metal phases in the Allende, Holbrook and Nuevo Mercurio chondrites
The Ni, Fe and Co contents of metal phases in the Allende, Holbrook and Nuevo Mercurio chondrites have been obtained using an automated electron microprobe fitted with both wavelength and energy dispersive spectrometers. The variation patterns of Ni-Fe-Co metal used in this study are discussed from...

The Ni, Fe and Co contents of metal phases in the Allende, Holbrook and Nuevo Mercurio chondrites have been obtained using an automated electron microprobe fitted with both wavelength and energy dispersive spectrometers. The variation patterns of Ni-Fe-Co metal used in this study are discussed from the standpoints of the volume percentage and average composition of each region, and the overall average composition of the metal phases. An advantage of random selection of many analytical points is that bulk composition of plessite becomes apparent even when the scale of intergrowth is generally less than the beam diameter. Co contents of kamacite in these chondrites are inconsistent with those reported previously, but the general tendency of Co to increase in the kamacite in chondrites from H, L to LL groups, is supported by this study. Although the variation patterns of Ni-Co observed so far for L4,H5 and CV3 chondrites are simple, six L6 chondrites, including those reported previously, show significant difference in Co contents and the concentration and abundance characteristics of Ni-Fe-Co patterns of the metal phases.
