High‐precision iron isotopic compositions for Fe‐bearing geological reference materials and chondrites with a wide range of matrices (e.g., silicates, oxides, organic‐bearing materials) are reported. This comprehensive data set should serve as studies across biological disciplines both quality assurance inter‐laboratory calibration. Where comparison is available, the most measured in this study were agreement previously published within quoted uncertainties. Recommendations reporting future...
Magmatic differentiation helps produce the chemical and petrographic diversity of terrestrial rocks. The extent to which magmatic fractionates nonradiogenic isotopes is uncertain for some elements. We report analyses iron in basalts from Kilauea Iki lava lake, Hawaii. isotopic compositions (56Fe/54Fe) late-stagemeltveins are 0.2 permil (per thousand) greater than values olivine cumulates. Olivine phenocrysts up 1.2 per thousand lighter those whole These results demonstrate that fractionate...

Isotopic variations usually follow mass-dependent fractionation, meaning that the relative in isotopic ratios scale with difference mass of isotopes involved (e.g., δ 17 O ≈ 0.5×δ 18 O). In detail, however, dependence is not always same, and different natural processes can define distinct slopes three-isotope diagrams. These are subtle, but improvements analytical capabilities now allow precise measurement these effects make it possible to draw inferences about caused them reaction kinetics...
Carbonaceous meteorites are thought to be fragments of C-type (carbonaceous) asteroids. Samples the asteroid (162173) Ryugu were retrieved by Hayabusa2 spacecraft. We measured mineralogy and bulk chemical isotopic compositions samples. The samples mainly composed materials similar those carbonaceous chondrite meteorites, particularly CI (Ivuna-type) group. consist predominantly minerals formed in aqueous fluid on a parent planetesimal. primary altered fluids at temperature 37° ± 10°C, about...

Earth exhibits a dichotomy in elevation and chemical composition between the continents ocean floor. Reconstructing when this arose is important for understanding plate tectonics started how supply of nutrients to oceans changed through time. We measured titanium isotopic shales constrain continental crust exposed weathering found that all ages have uniform composition. This can only be explained if emerged was predominantly felsic (silica-rich) since 3.5 billion years ago, requiring an...
Abstract An Erratum has been published for this article in Mass Spectrometry Reviews 25: 831–832, 2006 . Although the processes that govern iron isotope variations nature are just beginning to be understood, multiple studies attest of virtue system solve important problems geosciences and biology. In article, we review recent advances geochemistry, cosmochemistry, biochemistry isotopes. Section 2, briefly address question nucleosynthesis Fe 3, describe different methods purifying analyzing...
Archean rocks may provide a record of early Earth environments. However, such have often been metamorphosed by high pressure and temperature, which can overprint the signatures their original formation. Here, we show that banded from Isua, Akilia, Innersuartuut, Greenland, are enriched in heavy iron isotopes 0.1 to 0.5 per mil atomic mass unit relative igneous worldwide. The observed enrichments compatible with transport, oxidation, subsequent precipitation ferrous emanating hydrothermal...
